Stan Rogers - Guysborough Train

Em A
now there’s no train to guysborough
D G C G Bm
or so the man says , so it might be a good place to be
Em A D G
i sit in this station , and i count up my change
C Bm Em A C
and i wait for the guysborough train

now i’ve sat in your kitchens
and talked about walls , and i’ve sung about your withering pain
shattered your temples , and i’ve brought on your fall
now i wait for the guysborough train

A Em
and i ride for all time , on the guysborough line
A C Em
and i grow by the north county rain
A Em C
and the north shore’s begun , the man i’ve become
Bm Em A C
in rags , on the guysborough train

no train to guysborough
now ain’t that a shame , though i know there will be one in time
and the house that’s alone , it soon will be gone
razed for the guysborough line

people are simple
like mayflower sweet , both grown by that north county rain
the interval is clear , will it soon disappear
under the guysborough train?
