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