Fm |
There's fog drifting over the platform
|
|
There's mist havngng over the tracks
|
|
It's 19 minutes past midnight
|
| C |
at the | south end signal
|
Record time!
|
|
Fm |
There's a full moon and a cloudless sky
|
|
A trillion stars burn bright
|
|
But there's an ice cold chill up the back of my spine
|
| C |
at the | south end signal
|
Record time!
|
|
| C |
when the | signal boy took his
|
Record time!
|
|
Fm |
They say he'd been to Gallippolli
|
|
Came home and worked on the lines
|
|
changing tracks and swtiching points
|
| C |
at the | south end signal
|
Record time!
|
|
|
He fell asleep at midnight
|
|
the points had not been set
|
|
he heard the trains but it was too late
|
Record time!
|
|
| Bm |
There was a | freight train going north and a
|
Fm |
frieght train going south
|
Bm |
the crash work the entire
|
C |
the drivers jumped clear
|
C |
so there was no loss o life
|
G | Fm |
except the signal boy |
Record time!
|
|
Fm |
When he saw the crash he feared the worst
|
|
his blood ran down the wooden stairs
|
| C |
of the | south end signal
|
Record time!
|
|
Fm |
They say his spirit never left the scene
|
|
the was tormented by remorse
|
|
you can heard him cry on a full moon night
|
| C |
at the | south end signal
|
Record time!
|
|
| C |
You can | stop tormenting your
|
Record time!
