Gravy Train - Mark Knopfler

Gravy Train chords

B 
Well they fly past the ghettos and the factories 
Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
Leaving all the places that they really ought to brave 
Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
 
E                   F# 
Past the coal mines black and scarred 
E                     F# 
Starter houses in the loading yard 
       G#m                  F# 
On the Gravy Train, On the Gravy Train  
                   B 
There's the lucky little mothers in their luxury cars 
Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
Never thank each other or their lucky stars 
Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
E                   F# 
That's worse than ingratitude 
E                          F# 
Worse than a p**s poor attitude  
             G#m           F# 
On the Gravy Train, Gravy Train  
                B 
Well the hanger-uppers and the hangers-on 

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
Champagne suppers with their daggers all drawn 
Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
E               F# 
Some act tough, some act rude 
E                    F# 
Some bit of fluff complain about the food 
    B                                        G#m 
You wanna see somebody getting really rude 
           E 
Get on the Gravy Train, Gravy Train  
                                                                    B 
Well the golden goose is clattering-a-down the track, 
            E 
And they're gonna be ridin' in an old caboose 
C#            F# 
Coming back  
 
Solo: C# 
 
There's the soldiers of fashion on the hit parade 
Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
Tongue lashing with the b**ch brigade 
Ridin' on the Gravy Train 
Free loader licks my boots 
Tells me how he digs my suit 
You got lucky son, don't get cute 
Get on the Gravy Train
