Tom: G Intro: Em C Am G D Em Pass me that lovely little gun C My dear, my darling one Am The cleaners are coming, one by one G D Em You don't even want to let them start Ponte: Em C Am G D Em They are knocking now upon your door C They measure the room, they know the score Am They're mopping up the butcher's floor G D Em Of your broken little hearts Em Forgive us now for what we've done C It started out as a bit of fun Am Here, take these before we run away G D Em The keys to the gulag Em C7 Oooo children Refrão: G D Em Lift up your voice, lift up your voice C7 Children G D Em C Am G D Rejoice, rejoice Ponte: ( Em C Am G D ) Em Here comes Frank and poor old Jim C They're gathering round with all my friends Am We're older now, the light is dim G D Em And you are only just beginning Em We have the answer to all your fears C It's short, it's simple, it's crystal clear Am It's round about, it's somewhere here G D Em Lost amongst our winnings Refrão: G D Em Lift up your voice, lift up your voice C7 Children G D Em Rejoice, rejoice Em The cleaners have done their job on you C They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove Am They've hosed you down, you're good as new G D Em They're lining up to inspect you Em Poor old Jim's white as a ghost C He's found the answer that was lost Am We're all weeping now, weeping because G D Em There ain't nothing we can do to protect you Refrão: G D Em Lift up your voice, lift up your voice C7 Children G D Em Rejoice, rejoice Em Hey little train! We are all jumping on C The train that goes to the Kingdom Am We're happy, Ma, we're having fun G D Em And the train ain't even left the station Em Hey little train! Wait for me! C I once was blind but now I see Am Have you left a seat for me? G D Em Is that such a stretch of the imagination? Em Hey little train! Wait for me! C I was held in chains but now I'm free Am I'm hanging in there, don't you see G D Em In this process of elimination Em Hey little train! We are all jumping on C The train that goes to the Kingdom Am We're happy, Ma, we're having fun G D Em It's beyond my wildest expectation Em Hey little train! We are all jumping on C The train that goes to the Kingdom Am We're happy, Ma, we're having fun G D Em And the train ain't even left the station
