[Verse]
F#
With a steady hand on the lever
B C#
And the signal ready to pass
B A#m
Keep the light burning, fireman
B C#
And the water, well up in the glass
[Verse]
F#
With a shoulder to the rail
B C#
There's no better place to be
F# B
Than the right side of the footplate
C# F#
When you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
B C# F# B C#
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
B F# G#m C#
Voices that echo and ring down the line
B C# F# B C#
One load to shed, then homeward we tread
B F# C# F# B
Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
[Verse]
F#
Me granddaddy worked in the railway
B C#
C# bigwig, so I've heard talk
B A#m
Me father, he was a driver
B C#
Travelling pit to port
[Verse]
F#
And there's no better life for a young man
B C#
With them you must agree
F# B
When you're right side of the footplate
C# F#
And you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
B C# F# B C#
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
B F# G#m C#
Voices that echo and ring down the line
B C# F# B C#
One load to shed, then homeward we tread
B F# C# F# B
Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
[Verse]
F#
Tomorrow it's off up to Banbury
B C#
C# lodging turn for me
B A#m
Where I can lay me head on a pillow
B C#
In a room where I can sleep
[Verse]
F#
And it's up and away in the morning
B C#
And wipe the clock-face clean
F# B
And you're right side of the footplate
C# F#
And you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
B C# F# B C#
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
B F# G#m C#
Voices that echo and ring down the line
B C# F# B C#
One load to shed, then homeward we tread
B F# C# F# B F#
Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
[Verse]
F#
So pick up yer traps and yer Tommy-box
B C#
We're reaching the end of the line
B A#m
Keep yer eye on your watch, lad
B C#
We'll bring her in on time
[Verse]
F#
And it could have been life on the dole queue
B C#
Or mining for coal at the seam
F# B
But you're right side of the footplate
C# F#
And you're travelling by steam
[Chorus]
B C# F# B C#
Stand in the bight, look for the green light
B F# G#m C#
Voices that echo and ring down the line
B C# F# B C#
One load to shed, then homeward we tread
B F# C# F# B C# F#
Till morning and the coal-boy come singing
