Tonart: Bb major
Verse 1
Ab
Eb
Ab
At suburban
railway stations,
Eb
you may see them as you pass
There are signboards on the platform
saying, wait here, second class
Ab
And to me the whir and thunder
and the clunk of running gear
Db
Ab
Seem to be forever a saying,
Eb
Ab
saying, second class, wait here
Yes, the second class were waiting
Eb
in the days of serf and prince
And the second class are waiting,
they've been waiting ever since
Ab
There are gardens in the background
Db
and the line is bare and drear
Yet they wait beneath
Eb
Ab
Eb
Ab
nearing second class, wait here
I have waited in the winter,
Eb
in the mornings dark and damp
When the asphalt platform
glistened underneath that lonely lamp
Ab
And the wind among the poplars
Db
and the wires that thread the air
Ab
Seemed to be forever snarling,
snarling,
Eb
Ab
second -class wait here
Out beyond a further suburb
near a chimney stack alone
Eb
Lay the works of grinder brothers
with a platform of their own
Ab
And I waited there and suffered,
Db
waited there for many a day
Ab
Slave beneath a fandom signboard
Eb
Ab
Eb
Ab
telling all my hopes to stay
Oh, man must feel revengeful
Eb
For a boyhood such as mine
God, I hate the fairy houses
Near the workshop by the line
Ab
And the smell of railway stations
And the roar of running gear
Db
Ab
And the scornful sneering signboard
Eb
Ab
Saying, second class, wait here
There's a train with death for driver
Eb
that is ever going past
There will be no glass compartments
Ab
when it's all aboard at last
For the long white Jasper platform
with an Eden in the rear
Db
Ab
And there won't be any sign board
Eb
Ab
saying second class wait here
Eb
Oh no, there won't be any sign board
Ab
Eb
Ab
saying second class wait here
