1 - What It Is


Time: 4/4
Key: A Major
Capo: No for the 1st guitar, 2 for the 2nd guitar


For the second guitar put capo on 2nd fret and hit 'transpose' down to Em (-1)


| F#m - - A | D E |
| F#m | D E | x7


      F#m
The drinking dens are spilling out
          A
There's staggering in the square
         D
There's lads and lasses falling about
        A       E           F#m
And a crackling in The air


Down around the dungeon doors
      A                      D
The shelters and the queues
                   
Everybody's looking for
     A              E
Somebody's arms to fall into


           F#m       D  E
And it's what it is
             F#m     D  E
It's what it is now


          F#m
There's frost on the graves and the monuments
         A                        D
But the taverns are warm in town
                         
People curse the government
   A          E
And shovel hot food down

     F#m 
The lights are out in city hall
     A
The castle and the keep
     D
The moon shines down upon it all
     A         E
The legless and asleep


D

And it's cold on the tollgate
          A                       D
With the wagons creeping through

Cold on the tollgate
      A                 E
God knows what I could do with you


           F#m       D  E
And it's what it is
             F#m     D  E
It's what it is now


     F#m
The garrison sleeps in the citadel
           A                            D
With the ghosts and the ancient stones

High on the parapet
    A              E           F#m
A Scottish piper stands alone


And high on the wind
               A                  D
The highland drums begin to roll
                                  A
And something from the past just comes
              E
And stares into my soul


D

And it's cold on the tollgate
        A                D
With a caledonian blues

Cold on the tollgate
      A                 E
God knows what I could do with you


           F#m       D  E
And it's what it is
             F#m     D  E
It's what it is now

           F#m       D  E
And it's what it is
             F#m     D  E
It's what it is now


| F#m | A | D | A E | x2
| F#m | D E | x4


            F#m
There's a chink of light, there's a burning wick
           A
There's a lantern in the tower
     D
Wee Willie Winkie with a candlestick
        A                   E
Still writing songs in the wee wee hours
     F#m
On Charlotte Street I take
            A                 D
A walking stick for my hotel

The ghost of Dirty Dick
     A                 E
Is still in search of Little Nell


         F#m       D  E
That's what it is
             F#m     D  E
It's what it is now
             F#m  D  E
It's what it is
        F#m     D  E
What it is now


| F#m | D E | repeat to the end

A Geordie and a baker's boy

Now hold your head up, Mason

See America lies there

The morning tide has raised

A truck with no wheels up on cinderblocks

   Csus2                    Bbsus2
We only knew each other by letter 
                             Csus2
I went to meet her off the train
                                    Bbsus2
When the smoke had cleared and the dust was still
                                        Csus2
She was standing there and speaking my name

                               Bbsus2
I guarantee she looked like an angel
                                   Csus2
I couldn't think of what I should say
                              Bbsus2
But when Adam saw Eve in the garden
                                Csus2
I believe he felt the selfsame way

   Csus2                Bbsus2
I handed her up on the wagon
                             Csus2    
And I loaded up her trunk behind
                                   Bbsus2
She was sitting up there with the gold in her hair
                                 Csus2
And I tried to get a hold of my mind

         F                           Csus2
Do you think that you could love me Mary
         F                         Ebsus2  F
Do you think we got a chance of a life
         Csus2                       Bbsus2
Do you think that you could love me Mary
                      Csus2
Now you are to be my wife

    Csus2                      Bbsus2
We finally headed out of the station
                           Csus2
And we drove up the home trail
                                         Bbsus2
And when we came on the farm she laid a hand on my arm
                               Csus2
I thought my resolution would fail

                                   Bbsus2
And I froze as she stepped in the doorway
                               Csus2
Stood there as still as could be
                                         Bbsus2
I said I know it ain't much, it needs a woman's touch
                            Csus2
Lord she turned around and looked at me


         F                           Csus2

We had a prairie wedding
                                         Csus2
There was a preacher and a neighbor or two
                          Bbsus2
I gave my golden thing a gold wedding ring
                           Csus2
And the both of us said I do

                                   Bbsus2
When the sun's going down on the prairie
                            Csus2
And the gold in her hair is aflame
                             Bbsus2
I say do you really love me Mary
                                  Csus2
And I hold her and I whisper her name

       Am
These tables are haunted
         G
By the ghost of Las Vegas
        Am              
Their chips were once mountains
          G             Am
But they came here to play

            Am              C
They could take me if they wanted
            G
But I have nothing worth counting
              Am
And like the sands of Nevada
          G        Am
They go drifting away


      Am
Lady luck's still a mystery
          G
With her head on my shoulder
    Am
And I don't know why
         G           Am
I still want her to dance

   Am               C
I guess that's all history
        G
What it is is a I'm older
    Am
And I'm still a fool
      G          Am
For a one-way romance

     C
Her dice were red rubies
      F               G
They rolled and they tumbled
       C
And I never saw time
        F            G
Running out with my roll

            Am
And in the wasteland of cut glass
     G
My dreams were crumbled
          Am  
And I've paid with whatever
       G          Am
I had left for a soul

         Am
Now the dawn's broken even
     G
On a empty horizon
    Am
No reason for folding
    G          Am
No reason to stay

          Am         C
It's too soon to be leaving
     G
Too late for criticizing
         Am
And the sands of Nevada
          G        Am
They go drifting away

And in a while the houselights
         F               BbMaj7  Bb6  F/G  G

I'm afraid tonight it's take-away
     G
You see there is no evening meal

Don't worry dear you shall go to the ball
             F
I think the fairy said
       C/G
These suitcases have seen it all
     G
From under someone else's bed


     Dm                  Am
You want to smile those tears away
 F              G
Now don't you cry
     Dm               Am
You want to know what I say
