_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [Am] We've done some gigs on the [Dm]
quiet of town.
They flew us in [C] from a Hamburg strip.
[Am] The taste of [Bb] Dusseldorf still on our [E] lips.
[Dm] _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
[F] _ _ _ And on the bus [C] there is a friend of [Am] mine.
We go way back to the [Bb] scene of the [Dm] crime.
_ We sit up front and [C] share a cigarette.
[Am] And try to remember what we [Dm] tried to forget.
He said, do you remember? _ _
_ [G] [Dm] She said, do you recall?
[C] _ _
I [Dm] said, yeah, I remember. _ _
_ [C] [Dm] Oh, I remember it [C] all. _
_ _ [F] Every time the coal glows.
[Dm] _ Every time [C] I hear the sound.
[Dm] Late night train shining down by the [Am] river.
[Bb] _ I remember [Am] when we'd come.
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ We'd come so far [C] and we'd move so [Am] fast.
_ Making haste, [Bb] see it [Dm] all go fast.
_ [F] Round the world and [C] round [Am] again.
_ Up and down [Bb] on that gravy [Dm] train.
_ _ Every time that coal wind blows.
[Bb] _ Every time [C] I hear that sound.
[Dm] East coast crosswind on a coal wet [C] stone.
[Dm] _ Out in the [C] windy town.
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ The freezing corners [C] and the empty streets.
_ [Am] _ The burning passion [Dm] and the cold wet feet.
Three tricky miles [C] home every night.
[Am] Dodging from the shadows [Bb] underneath those amber lights.
_ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Dm] No car for [C] kissing and nowhere [Am] to go.
Step inside each [Bb] other and I'll abuse you.
[F] I held your [C] face as you shivered in the rain.
Girl, I'll always love [Dm] you and I'll love you again. _ _
_ Oh, every [Bb] time. _ _
_ Yeah, every time. _ _
_ _ [Dm] Every time that coal wind [C] blows.
[Dm] _ Every time [C] I hear the sound.
_ [Dm] Late night train shining down by the [C] river.
[Dm] _ I remember [C] when we'd come.
[Dm] _ Every time that coal wind blows.
Every time [C] I hear [Am] that sound.
[Dm] East coast crosswind on a coal wet stone.
I remember, [C] I remember.
_ _ [Dm] _ Windy town. _ _
_ There it goes.
