[F#m] ring condensers are spilling [A] out, staggering in the square,
[D] As lads and lasses are falling [A] about in a [E] cracker lane in the air.
[F#m] Then around the dungeon [A] doors there's shelters and a queue,
[D] _ Everybody's looking [A] for somebody's [E] arms to fall [F#m] into,
That's what it is.
[A] _ [D] That's [E] _
[F#m] what it is.
_ _ [D] _ _ [E] _
[F#m] It is frost on the graves in the [A] monuments but the taverns are warm in town.
[D] People curse the government, [A] shovel [E] hard food [F#m] down.
Lights are out in city [A] hall, the castle and the keep. _
[D] Moon shines down upon it [A] all, the [E] legless and the [D] sleepless.
Cold on the toll gate, [A] with the wagons creeping through.
[D] Cold on the toll [A] gate, God knows what [E] I could do.
[F#m] That's what it is.
_ [A] _ [D] That's [E] _
[F#m] what it is.
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [E] _
[F#m] The gavesson sleeps in the [A] citadel with the ghost in the ancient stone.
[D] High on the [A] parapet, a Scottish [E] piper stands [F#m] alone.
High on the whim, [A] the Highland run speaking a row.
[D] Something from the past just [A] comes and stares [E] into my [D] soul.
Cold on the toll gate, [A] with the Caledonian roof.
[D] Cold on the toll [A] gate, God knows [E] what I could do.
[F#m] That's what it is.
