Runrig - Ravenscraig C MacDonald/R MacDonald https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMBEIoIIQnU [Intro] A A A A [Verse 1]

^AWord ^Ecame like a ^F#mhammer,Night fell down like a shrou^Ad ^AIt's caught me ^Edrinking trying to ^F#mturn back the clock ^DThrough this industrial g^Ahost town ^AI've known ^Egraft and I've ^F#mvoted well,^ATrying to keep the Lowl^Dands ^Bmred ^ABut all I gets control in ^Bmforeign hands,^DOther colours ins^Atead

[Chorus]

^F#mAll I want is a roof ^Aover my head ^AAll I want is a ^Bmsteady job ^AAll I want to do is ^F#msay I love you ^DWith every penny I've ^Agot ^F#mAnd all I think about are ^ADebbie and Jane ^AGive them some kind of ^Bmchance in ^Dlife ^ABut the long road running out the strip ^F#mmill gate ^DHas got me ^Ewalking that ^Aline

^AWe ^Enever stretched ^F#mour dance hall dreams,We got it just about ^Aright ^AThere's little escape from ^Ea working ^F#mtown and from a working life ^DI placed my future in the ^Apalm of your hand ^AOne autumn ^EFriday at the ^F#mChurch of All Saints,There's no investment here in ^Alife ^Dor in ^Bmlove And ^Dnow it's g^Eetting too l^Aate

[Chorus]

[Outro]

^DHas got me ^Ewalking that ^Aline ^DHas got me ^Ewalking that ^Aline
