snow laying all around

a collier cycles home
                            D     A
from his night shift underground

past the silent pub
                                 Em
primary school, workingmens club

on the road from the pithead
                G
the churchyard packed
             D
with mining dead


then beneath the bridge

he comes to a giant car
     G
a shroud of snow upon the roof
               D   A
a mark ten jaguar

he thought the man was fast asleep
                        Em
silent, still and deep

both dead and cold
        G
shot through
             D     G7M
with bullet holes


the one armed bandit man
                              D
came north to fill his boots

came up from cockneyland
                             G7M
e-type jags and flashy suits

put your money in

pull the levers
                D
watch them spin

cash cows in all the pubs
                             A
but he preferred the new nightclubs


nineteen sixty-seven
                               Bm
bandit men in birdcage heaven
  
la dolce vita, sixty-nine
     G                        D  A
all new to people of the tyne


D
who knows who did what

somebody made a call
      G
they said his hands

were in the pot
                         D     A
that heÂ’d been skimming hauls

he picks up the swag
                     Em
they gaily gave away

drives his giant jag
     G              D   G7M
off to his big pay day


the bandit man
                             D
came north to fill his boots

came up from cockneyland
                              G7M
e-type jags and flashy suits

the bandit man
                             D
came up the great north road

up to geordieland

to mine
                A
the mother lode


A


 D

seams blew up or cracked
                             G
black diamonds came hard won

generations toiled and hacked
                          D   A
for a pittance and black lung

crushed by tub or stone

together
          Em
and alone

how the young and old
           G       D    A
paid the price of coal


eighteen sixty-seven
                          Bm
my angelÂ’s gone to heaven
                     G
heÂ’ll be happy there
                             D  A
sunlight and sweet clean air

D

they gather round the glass
                           Bm
tough hewers and crutters

child trappers and putters
                 Em         A       Em
the little foals and half-marrows

who pushed
                A      Em
and pulled the barrows

the hod boys
         G            D
and the rolleywaymen

the trawlermanÂ’s song
Capo: 3

Chords:

Intro: Am

weÂ’re taking on water
 D
diesel and stores
 G
laying up awhile
            C          
before iÂ’m back on board
         Am
theyÂ’re patching her up
                D    G
to go fishing again

  Am
theyÂ’re welding her rudder
   D
scrubbing her keel
  G
scars on her belly
      C
need time to heal
        Am
in the dock
                 B7
with the trawlermen

i know all the people
thereÂ’s nobody new
soon weÂ’ll be leaving
with the same old crew
on the green water
the tumbling sea
they ainÂ’t running
like the good old days
timeÂ’s just slipping
down the old slipways
in the dock
so dear to me

Am
             D    G
dark is the night
          Em
i need a guiding light
    G
to keep me
      Em
from foundering
        D    Am
on the rocks
          D    G
my only prayer
            Em
is just to see you there
       G
at the end
     D
of my wandering
             G    G7addF
back in the dock


C | Am | D | Bm | F
Em | B7 | F | Em


i could use a layoff
getting my strength back
but thereÂ’s a loan to pay off
and a few skipjack
so itÂ’s a turnaround
back in the southerly wind
pirates coming in
to steal our gold
you can count yourself lucky
with a profit in the hold
in the dock
when we come in

dark is the night
i need a guiding light
to keep me
from foundering
on the rocks
my only prayer
is just to see you there
at the end
of my wandering
back in the dock

back to tupelo
Capo: 2

Chords:
C7M [x32000]

Am

around the time of ‘clambake’
movie number twenty-five
you and the lying dutchman
are still in overdrive
youÂ’re as strong as when you started
mississippi in your soul
you can still be marlon brando
         G                Am
and the king of rock and roll


it isnÂ’t just the records
no, you must have hollywood
the songs alone are not enough
that much is understood
youÂ’ll soon be back in memphis
maybe then youÂ’ll know what to do
the storylines theyÂ’re giving you
     G                 Am   Am/G
are just not ringing true

               F      Dm/F  G  C
oh, itÂ’s a ways to go
              F Dm/F  G  C7
back to tupelo
              F       Dm/F  G  C
oh, itÂ’s a ways to go
              F Dm/F  G
back to tupelo


Dm | G | C7M | F
Dm | G | C7M | F
Dm | G

Am

when youÂ’re young and beautiful
your dreams are all ideals
later on itÂ’s not the same
lord, everything is real
sixteen hundred miles of highway
roll back to the truth
and a song to give your mother
in your first recording booth

around the time of ‘clambake’
that old dreamÂ’s still rolling on
sometimes thereÂ’ll be the feeling
things are going wrong
the morning star is fading
lord, the mississippiÂ’s cold
you can still be marlon brando
and the king of rock and roll

but itÂ’s a ways to go
back to tupelo

song for sonny liston
Capo: 4

Chords: 
A5 [x022xx]
A7 [x05655]
Am6 [x04555]

 A5
so many mouths
to feed on the farm
sonny was the second
to the last one born
his mamma ran away
and his daddy beat him bad
and he grew up wild
good love he never had

he had a left
like henryÂ’s hammer
a right like betty bamalam
rode with the muggers
in the dark and dread
and all them sluggers
went down like lead

well he hung with the hoods
he wouldnÂ’t stroke the fans
but he had dynamite
in both his hands
boom bam
like the slammer door
the bell and the can
and the bodies on the floor

beware the bearÂ’s in town
somebodyÂ’s money says
the bearÂ’s going down
yeah, the bear never smiles
 A5/G
sonnyÂ’s going down
     A5/F#
for miles and miles
 A5/F
sonnyÂ’s going down
                    A5
for miles and miles

the writers didnÂ’t like him
the fight game jocks
with his lowlife backers
and his hands like rocks
they didnÂ’t want to have
a bogey man
they didnÂ’t like him
and he didnÂ’t like them

  D5
black cadillac
alligator boots
 A5
money in the pockets
of his sharkskin suits
 A7
some say the bear
 Am6
took a flop
      A7
they couldnÂ’t believe it
when they saw him drop
          A5
he had a left
like henryÂ’s hammer
a right like betty bamalam
rode with the muggers
in the dark and dread
and all them sluggers
went down like lead

joe louis was his hero
he tried to be the same
but a criminal child
wears a ball and chain
so the civil rights people
didnÂ’t want him on the throne
and the hacks and the cops
wouldnÂ’t leave him alone

beware the bearÂ’s in town
somebodyÂ’s money says
the bearÂ’s going down
yeah, the bear never smiles
sonnyÂ’s going down
for miles and miles
sonnyÂ’s going down
for miles and miles

at the foot of his bed
with his feet on the floor
there was dope in his veins
and a pistol on the drawer
there was no investigation
as such
he hated needles
but he knew too much

criss-crossed
on his back
scars from his daddy
like slavery tracks
the second-last child
was the second-last king
never again was it the same
in the ring

he had a left
like henryÂ’s hammer
a right like betty bamalam
rode with the muggers
in the dark and dread
and all them sluggers
went down like lead

they never could be sure
about the day he was born
a motherless child
set to working on the farm
and they never could be sure
about the day he died
the bear was the king
they cast aside

beware the bearÂ’s in town
somebodyÂ’s money says
the bearÂ’s going down
yeah, the bear never smiles
sonnyÂ’s going down
for miles and miles
sonnyÂ’s going down
for miles and miles

               E   G#7
if iÂ’m doing great
                  C#m
itÂ’s because when i get home

i donÂ’t go straight
       C#m        E9
to my answerphone
                     A(V)  G#7
and the tears donÂ’t come

they were only the little things

anyhow

                 E   G#7
if iÂ’m over the moon
                      C#m
itÂ’s because thatÂ’s what i am
           D9    G#7
funny that once
           C#m        E9
i used to give a damn
                A(V)  G#7
and iÂ’d do anything
             C#m                 A7(V)
in the whole wide world for you
          E/B  B
whoop de doo
          C#m  F#7
whoop de doo
 
E        G#7

when the monkeyshine is flying
and heÂ’s promising the cure
he says the french
for your lovesick blues
la maladie dÂ’amour
he gets the chumps all laughing
but he gets a few to buy
hereÂ’s to beefsteak
when youÂ’re hungry
and whiskey when youÂ’re dry
now the bandÂ’ll blow their moolah
like sailors gone ashore
now weÂ’re going to west helena
to gamble, drink and whore
letÂ’s you and me
all make whoopee
hereÂ’s mud in your eye
hereÂ’s to all the gals you ever want
and heaven when you die

there stands the bottle
ladies and gentlemen
all these bottles
donÂ’t have to tell you, friends
these days miracles
donÂ’t come falling from the sky
raise your glasses to the doctor
to a stand up guy

thereÂ’s a big cheese with a cigar
been sizing up the show
he wants to get the doctor
pitching on the radio
i will make a switch to guitar
but the rules all still apply
they want to trust somebody
yeah, they want a stand up guy

there stands the bottle
hereÂ’s to absent friends
all these bottles
dead soldiers in the end
these days miracles
donÂ’t come falling from the sky
raise your glasses to the doctor
to a stand up guy
to the doctor
a stand up guy
