Early morning day is dawning

        Gm/Bb              D     D7/C G/B Gm/Bb D
Cooling towers and factory gates

      D7/C                 G/B
Dirty streets and laughing people

Sad canals green black water

          Gm/Bb        D    D7/C G/B Gm/Bb D
Somewhere bicycles and beds

        D7/C         G/B
Wet and windy afternoons

            Gm/Bb         D      C Bb Abmaj7
And pigeons coo in garden sheds
[Chorus]

High-rise tower blocks with panoramic

Gm/Bb               D    D7/C G/B Gm/Bb D
Views of trains and coal

        D7/C                 G/B
Tiehead railway tracks tread faithfully

    Gm/Bb          D      C Bb Abmaj7
The gas works to behold
[Chorus]

Just to see the sunset

Pretty rainbows over your majestic towers

To feel your earth beneath my feet

Here I could stand for hours and hours

Big machines that once were champions

        Gm/Bb          D    D7/C G/B Gm/Bb D
Turn to dust under the sky

       D7/C             G/B
Broken windows choking chimneys

        Gm/Bb               D      C Bb Abmaj7
Factory walls for miles and miles
[Chorus]
C  G            D
By bye my old friend

By bye my old friend

Here I could stand for hours and hours
