_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ Pass me that lovely little gun, [C] _
_ my dear, my darling one.
[Am] _
The keeners are coming one by [G] one. _
You don't even want [D] to [Em] let them start.
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
They're knocking now upon your door.
_ [C] _
They measure the room, they know the score.
_ [Am] _
They're mopping up the butcher's floor.
_ [G] _
_ Of your broken [F#m] little [Em]
heart.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ [D] Forgive _ [Em] _
us now for what we've done.
_ [C] _
Started out as a bit of fun.
_ [Am] _
Here, take these before we run [G] away.
_ _ The [D] keys to [Em] the blue bag.
_ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [Em] _

_ _ _ _ _ Children, rejoice, _ [D] _ _ _ _ rejoice.
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] Come on, _ _ _ _ _
[Am] come on, _ _ _ [Em] come _ [G] on.
_ [G] _ _ _
[Em] Here comes Frank and poor old Jim.
[C] _
They're gathering round with all my friends.
[E] _
We're older now and the light is dim.
[G] _
And you are [F#m] only just [Em]
beginning.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ Children, [Em] _
we have the answer to all your [C] fears.
It's short, it's simple, it's crystal clear.
[Am] _
It's round about and it's somewhere here.
[G] _
_ _ Lost [F#m] amongst our [Em] _
winnings.
_ _ _ _ [C] Oh, _ children, _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ lift up [D] your hearts.
_ _ Lift up your [Em] _
_ hearts.
_ _ _ _ [C] _
Children, _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] rejoice, _ _ _ _ _ rejoice.
[Em] _
The cleaners have done their job on you.
[C]
The head to the manor and the groom.
_ [Am]
They've posted down your good as new.
[G] _ _
And they're lining [D] up to [Em] _
inspect you.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ Oh, children.
[Em] _ _
Poor old Jim's white as a ghost.
[C] He's found the answer that we lost.
_ [Am] We're all weeping now, weeping because
_ There ain't nothing we can do [Em] to protect you.
Oh, _ _ _ [C] children, _ _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ lift up your _ _ [D]
voice.
Lift up [Em] your _ _ _ voice.
_ _ [C] Oh, children, _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ rejoice, [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] rejoice.
The poor old _ Jim's white as a ghost.
The train that goes to the kingdom.
_ [A] We're happy now, we're having [Am] fun.
[G] The train ain't even [D] here for _ [Em] station. _ _
_ _ I [C] once was blind, but now I see.
I [A] have you left to see for me.
Is [G] that such a stretch of [D] _
_ _ [Em] imagination? _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] It's hell, I've been changed, but now I'm free.
_ [Am] I'm hanging in there, don't you see?
I'm in this [G] _ process of _ _ elimination.
[Em] _ _ _ The _
_ [C] train that goes to the kingdom.
_ [Am] We're happy now, we're having fun.
[G] Beyond my wildest dreams, it's [Em] that _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C]
train that goes.
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
