LOCOMOTIVE BREATH
Jethro Tull


INTRO:
Em      G D Em
Em      G D Em

VERSE:
Em                                Em  G D Em
In the shuffling madness
Em                                Em  G D Em
Of Locomotive Breath
Em                                Em  G D B
Runs the all-time loser
B                                 B   B D Em
Headlong to his death
Em                                Em  G D Em
Oh He feels the pistons scraping
Em                                Em  G D 
Steam Breaking on his brow
G                     A
Old Charlie stole the handle
        B                          B      D       Em
And the train it won't stop going, no way to slow down

VERSE:
He sees his children jumping off
At stations one by one
His woman and his best friend
In bed and having fun
He's crawling down the corridor
On his hands and knees
Old Charlie stole the handle
And the train it won't stop going, no way to slow down

VERSE:
He hears the silence howling
Catches angels as they fall
And the all-time winner
Has got him by the balls
He picks up Gideon's Bible
Open at page one
Thank God he stole the handle
And the train it won't stop going, no way to slow down
