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