Silvertown Blues Chords by Mark Knopfler

[D] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] On Silver Town Way, the cranes stand high, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Quiet and gray against the still of the sky,
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Dm] _ They won't quit and lay down, though the action is dire. _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] They watch the new game in town, on the black wall side, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ From their [Dm] poisonous dreams, a vision appears, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ New circle of cranes, a new reason to be here, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Big silver dome, rising up into the dark, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Above the church and new homes, where all the silver is gone, gone. _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ Find a bucket of gold, what would [C] I do?
_ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [C] _ Leave the story [Bb] untold, Silver [Dm] Town.
_ _ [Bb] _ _
Going [F] down in Silver [Bb] Town, _
_ [C] _ down in Silver [Dm] Town, Going [Bb] down in Silver [C] Town, _ _ _ down in Silver [F] [C] Town. _
_ [Dm] _ A silver [Bb] dawn, steals over [Dm] the dark, _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ A truck with [Bb] no wheels, up on Cinder Block,
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ And no dreams around fire in it, _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ Skull and [Bb] metal schemes are rusted over [Dm] and done, _ [Gm] done.
_ [Dm] _
_ [Gm] _ Find a bucket of gold, [Bb]
Silver [C] Town, _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [C] _ Leave the story [Bb] _ untold, Silver [F] Town.
_ _ [Bb] _ Going _ [F] down in Silver [Bb] Town, _
_ [C] _ down in Silver [Dm] Town, Going [Bb] down in Silver [C] Town, _ _ _ down in Silver [F] Town.
[C] _
_ [Dm] _ _ Stand a [Bb] dawn in _ [Dm] dangerous _ [F] sights, [Bb] _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ Not the [Bb] walking _ [Dm] horses and supplies,
[F] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ But the way [Bb] you can turn away, [Dm] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ There's nothing [Bb] they can tell me I don't [Dm] already own.
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Dm] _ [Gm] _ [Bb] Find a bucket [Gm] of [Bb] gold, Silver [C] would do, _ [E] _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [C] _ Leave the story [Bb] _ untold, Silver [Dm] Town.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ And I'm going [F] down in Silver [Bb] Town, _
_ [C] _ down in Silver [Dm] Town, I'm [Bb] going down in Silver [C] Town, _ _ _ down in Silver [F] Town.
[C] _
_ [Dm] _ On the Camden [Bb] train, I saw a [Dm] billboard on it, _ [Bb] _ _
_ [Dm] _ There's a big silver plane, rising up in the sky, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I can [Bb] make out the words, say the flags [Dm] every [F] day, _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ Say a six-year [Bb]-old burns his mouth a [Dm] day,
_ [Am] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Gm] Find a bucket of gold, Silver [C] would _ [Bb] [Am] do, _ _
_ [C] _ Leave the story [Bb] _ untold, Silver [Dm] _ [F] Town.
[Bb] And I'm _ [F] going down in Silver [Bb] Town, _
_ [C] _ down in Silver [Dm] Town, I'm [Bb] going down in Silver [C] Town, _ _ _ down in Silver [F] Town.
I'm [C] [Dm] going down in Silver [Bb] Town, _
[Dm] _ [C] _ down in [Dm] Silver Town, I'm [Bb] going down in [C] Silver Town, _ _ _ down in Silver [F] Town. _
