Mark Knopfler – Gravy Train (Guitar)

B
Well they fly past the ghettos and the factories

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

B
Leaving all the places that they really ought to brave

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

E                   F#
Past the coal mines black and scarred

E                     F#
Starter houses in the loading yard

       G#m                  F#
On the Gravy Train, On the Gravy Train

                 B
There's the lucky little mothers in their luxury cars

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

B
Never thank each other or their lucky stars

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

E                   F#
That's worse than ingratitude

E                          F#
Worse than a piss poor attitude

             G#m           F#
On the Gravy Train, Gravy Train

                B
Well the hanger-uppers and the hangers-on

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

B
Champagne suppers with their daggers all drawn

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

E               F#
Some act tough, some act rude

E                    F#
Some bit of fluff complain about the food

    B                                        G#m
You wanna see somebody getting really rude

           E
Get on the Gravy Train, Gravy Train

              B
Well the golden goose is clattering a down the track,

            E
And they're gonna be ridin' in an old caboose

C#            F#
Coming back

B
There's the soldiers of fashion on the hit parade

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

B
Tongue lashing with the b**ch brigade

B
Ridin' on the Gravy Train

E            F#
Freeloader licks my boots

E            F#
Tells me how he digs my suit

     B                             G#m
You got lucky son, don't get cute

           E
Get on the Gravy Train
