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