Mark Knopfler - 5:15 AM chords
Start Jamming...
5.15 a.m. Snow laying all around
[Ab] The college cycle's home From his night shift [Eb]
underground
[Bb]
Past the silent pub Primary school work and men's club
[Fm] On the road from the pit head The [Ab] churchyard packed with mining [Eb] dig
Then, beneath the bridge Comes to a giant car
[Ab] A shroud of snow upon the roof A Mark 10 [Eb] Jaguar
[Bb]
He thought the man was fast asleep Silent, still and deep
[Fm]
Both dead and cold A shot [Ab] through with [Eb] bullet holes
The [Ab]
one abandoned man Came north to fill his boots
[Eb] Came up from Cockney land E-tied Jags and flashy suits
[Ab] Put your money in Pull the levers, watch them spin
[Eb] Cash cows in all the pubs But he preferred the new night
[Bb] clubs
1967 Abandoned man in birdcage
[Cm] Giving a Dolce Vita 69 [Ab] All new to people of the [Fm]
[Eb] time
Who
[Bb]
[Eb] knows who did what?
Somebody made a [Ab] call
They said his hands were in the pot But he'd been skin and [Eb]
bones
[Bb]
He picks up the swag That Kaylee gave away
[Fm]
Drives his giant Jag [Ab] Off to his big [Eb]
payday
[Ab]
Oh, the abandoned man Came north to fill his boots
[Eb]
Came up from Cockney land E-tied Jags and flashy suits
[Ab]
Yeah, the abandoned man Came out of the great North Road
[Eb]
Up to Geordie land To mine the mother [Bb] lode
[Eb]
Seams blew up all cracked Black diamonds came hard won
[Ab]
Generations toiled and hacked For a bit and sent black [Eb] alone
[Bb]
Washed by tub of stone Together and [Fm] alone
How the young and old [Ab] Paid the price [Eb] of coal
[Bb]
1867 My angel's gone to heaven
[Cm]
He'll be happy then [Ab]
Sunlight and sweet clean air
[Bb]
They [Eb]
gather round the glen Tough hewers and prudders
[Cm] Child trappers and putters
The little [Fm] foals and [Bb] half marrows Who
[Fm] pushed and [Bb] pulled the barrels
[Fm] The hot boys [Ab] and the rolly way men [Eb]
