Intro
Em G Em G C G Bm Em
[Verse 1]
Em
When the signals were green did you sit by the line
Am D D/D#
And watch for the fire in the sky
Em
Then a scream and a roar and the shivering ground
Em Bm Em
And old Oliver Cromwell goes by
G C
Did you fancy your hand at the throttle and brake
G Em
With the steam driven into your soul
G C
Or to stand with the driving wheels under your feet
G D Em
And shovel a mountain of coal
[Interlude]
Em G Em G C G Bm Em
[Verse 2]
Em
Well they've silenced the whistle; the coal is all burned
Em Am D D/D#
And they've buried the ashes for good
Em
They've torn up the loop, and there's only a scar
Em Bm Em
To show where the water-crane stood
G C
But the birch and the elder still follow the track
G Em
Standing black in the smoke and the rain
G C
And the poor little sheep with the smouldering back
G D Em
Runs away at the sound of a train
[Interlude]
Em G Em G C G Bm Em
[Verse 3]
Em
O Britannias and Jubillees, Compounds and Crabs
Em Am D D/D#
Have been taken away from the shed
Em
And along with the clipper, the coach and the cab
Em Bm Em
They speak of an age that is dead
G C
For some are away to be mounted and stuffed
G Em
While others are butchered and sold
G C
And the steamraiser's gone for the very last time
G D Em
And his brazier's broken and cold
[Interlude]
Em G Em G C G Bm Em
[Verse 4]
Em
Well I've given me kettle and me old tin can
Em Am D D/D#
To a lad for a souvenir
Em
And I'd trade in me shovel for twenty fags
Em Bm Em
Or the price of a bottle of beer
G C
For the Scotsman has come to the end of his run
G Em
And Mallard is cold as the stone
G C
The story is over, the giants are dead
G D Em
And the jackals are picking the bones
[Outro]
Em G D Am
