  D5               F5        
A stron wind blew across the bay
  C5                  D5
A word for happiness on that day
    D5                  F5
The workers board their trains for home
      C5                     D5
Their shirts were dirty and damp

      F5           C5           D5
And I stood there just like before
  D5                   C5
A nod from a stud or a smile from a whore
   F5               D5
It all seemed so impermanent though
  C5                        A5
I think that it never will change

  D5                F5
I went down the old narrow road
     C5                         D5
That leads to the shore and to Sally's old boat
  D5                F5
I went aboard and I rowed away
   C5                D5
To get to the other side

         F5         C5           D5
And they all lit a fire on the beach that night
    D5        F5                    C5
And all their troubles were out of sight
  F5                    D5
I just walked in and I tied the boat
     C5                       A5
To a tree in the edge of the wood

        C5 D5


         D5                         F5
And they all sang a song called the bottle of smoke
     C5                          D5
They blew their whistles, their drums they stroke
        D5                     F5
And the fair young ladies thay danced in the night
       C5                        D5    C5    D5
To the sound of the band in the flickering light
