Key: Bb major
Verse 1
Db
Ab
Db
At suburban
railway stations,
There are signboards on the platform
saying, wait here, second class
and the clunk of running gear
Gb
Db
Seem to be forever a saying,
Ab
Db
saying, second class, wait here
Yes, the second class were waiting
And the second class are waiting,
they've been waiting ever since
Yet they wait beneath
Ab
Db
Ab
Db
nearing second class, wait here
I have waited in the winter,
When the asphalt platform
glistened underneath that lonely lamp
snarling,
Ab
Db
second -class wait here
Out beyond a further suburb
near a chimney stack alone
with a platform of their own
Ab
Db
Ab
Db
telling all my hopes to stay
Oh, man must feel revengeful
God, I hate the fairy houses
Near the workshop by the line
And the roar of running gear
Gb
Db
And the scornful sneering signboard
Ab
Db
Saying, second class, wait here
There's a train with death for driver
There will be no glass compartments
For the long white Jasper platform
with an Eden in the rear
Gb
Db
And there won't be any sign board
Ab
Db
saying second class wait here
Db
Ab
Db
saying second class wait here
