A silver dawn steals over the docks
A truck with no wheels up on the cinderblocks
Men with no dreams around a fire in a drum
Scrap metal schemes rusted over and done
If I'd a bucket of gold, silver would do
I'd leave the story untold Silvertown blues
And I'm going down in Silvertown
Down in Silvertown
Going down in Silvertown
Down in Silvertown
[Dm]When you're standing on [Bb]thin and dangerous [Dm]ice [C] [Bb]
[Dm]You can knock and walk [Bb]in for citizens' [Dm]advice [C] [Bb]
[Dm]They'll tell you where you can [Bb]turn, where you can [Dm]go [C] [Bb]
[Dm]There's nothing they can [Bb]tell me I don't already[Dm] know [C] [Bb]
If I'd a bucket of gold, silver would do
I'd leave the story untold Silvertown blues
And I'm going down in Silvertown
Down in Silvertown
Going down in Silvertown
Down in Silvertown
From the Canning Town train I see a billboard high
There's a big silver plane rising up into the sky
And I can make out the words 'seven flights every day'
Says six of those birds are bound for JFK
If I'd a bucket of gold, silver would do
I'd leave the story untold Silvertown blues
And I'm going down in Silvertown
Down in Silvertown
Going down in Silvertown
Down in Silvertown
that's about it,sorry about the solo,my electric is broken,
I'll try to post it later on.
