[Intro]
| Am | Bdim | E7 | Am |
| Am | Bdim | E7 | Am |
[Verse 1]
Am Bdim First time I saw the Baron's claw E7 Am Gold and silver, bits of iron ore Am Bdim Heads peering 'round the screen door E7 Am We all said, "Cor" Am Bdim They'd just installed the first phone E7 Am At the ancestral home Am Bdim And silhouetted by the fire, I saw E7 Am A phone in the claw
[Chorus]
C E7/B And all the children cried with joy Am Am7/G Am6/F# As they ran alongside F C The big black car sped by E7 Steered by the Baron's claw
[Verse 2]
Am Bdim Next time I saw the Baron's claw E7 Am It's ripping through the grocer's door Am Bdim He saved the family from the fire's roar E7 Am The Baron's claw Am Bdim As his skin melted on the street E7 Am The Baron swayed on his feet Am Bdim And held aloft the claw E7 Am We all said, "Phwoar"
[Chorus]
C E7/B And all the children cried Am Am7/G Am6/F# And walked alongside F C As the car went by E7 Carrying the Baron's claw C E7/B Stories never grow old Am Am7/G Am6/F# When there's still things to be told F C Things to be told E7 About the Baron's claw
[Instrumental]
| Am | Bdim | E7 | Am |
| Am | Bdim | E7 | Am |
[Chorus]
C E7/B And all the children cried Am Am7/G Am6/F# And ran alongside F C The big black car sped by E7 Carrying the Baron's claw
[Outro]
Am Bdim Last time I was in Baron's court E7 Am I caught a whiff of molten iron ore Am Bdim Through the cracks of the old forge door E7 Am Glow of the Baron's claw
