[Intro]

G (x10)

[Verse 1]

I took a train out of Leeds in the smear and stain

I saw the city pass by in the shuffling rain

[Solo]

| | | | | | |

[Verse 2]

I'm in Huddersfield drinking in the slumbber's arms

And I walked through slush by broken farms

Where huddling sheep are turning grey

In the cold light of a nothing day

It took me fifty long years just to work out

That because I was angry didn't mean I was right

Now I'm sitting in a bar alone

With the jukebox playing that terrible song

The bartender says I see it's you again

I been drinking deep from the jar a pain Jar of pain

[Chorus]

I remember once I went home like this

I had my mother in tears as I felt her kiss

And now my mother is heaven bound

And her body lies in unmarked ground, unmarked ground

[Solo]

| G | G | G | G

[Verse 2]

In every heart in every home

There's a dying man who lives alone

He close the door and he turn away

And the tide rushes in on a fatal shore

I can never get too close too coal

With a glass in my hand and the embers' crack

Now the fire's gone out and the chimney's closed

And there's a round jeer sticking on my back, on my back

[Chorus]

I remember once I went home like this

I had my mother in tears as I felt her kiss

And now my mother is heaven bound

And her body lies in unmarked ground, unmarked ground

[Solo]

| G | G | G | G

[Verse 3]

I took a train out of Leeds in the smear and stain

I saw the city pass by in the shuffling rain

And with chimneys leaning to the sea

I got the salt of Sunderland creasing me

I took a jar a pain to the soaking field

And to the lonely seawall inn south shields, south shields

[Chorus]

I remember once I went home like this

I had my mother in tears as I felt her kiss

And now my mother is heaven bound

And her body lies in unmarked ground, unmarked ground

And if I was a man which I am not

Standing in the least rotten snow

I'd fall on my knees and I'd cry out loud

To the snowy river and the icy flow, icy flow

[Solo]

| G | G | G | G

[Verse 4]

I took a train out of Leeds in the smear and stain

I saw the city pass by in the shuffling rain

[Solo]

| | | |

| | | | |

I took a train out of Leeds in the smear and stain

I saw the city pass by in the shuffling shuffling rain

And if I was a man which I am not

Standing in the least rotten snow

I'd fall on my knees and I'd cry out loud

I cry Lord

"Lord, Lord help me,

[Outro]

Because my boat, my boat, my boat, my boat

My boat, my boat, my boat, my boat

My boat, my boat, my boat, my boat is so small

My boat, my boat, my boat

And your sea, my boat, my boat, my boat is so immense

My boat, my boat, my boat is so immense

Oh Lord, my boat, my boat

Lord help me, my boat, my boat

My boat my boat, my boat

My boat is so small

My boat my boat, my boat

Have you seen, my boat, my boat

So it is, my boat, my boat

So it is, my boat, my boat, fades out

Can’t understand any lyrics at this point
