D D7/C G/B Gm/A#
[Verse 1]
D D7/C G/B
Early morning day is dawning

Cooling towers and factory gates

Dirty streets and laughing people

Skinny dogs and beer crates

Hello my old friend

Sad canals green black water
Gm/A# D D7/C G/B Gm/A# D
Somewhere bicycles and beds

Wet and windy afternoons
Gm/A# D C Bb G#maj7
And pigeons coo in garden sheds
[Chorus]

Hello my old friend

High-rise tower blocks with panoramic
Gm/A# D D7/C G/B Gm/A# D
Views of trains and coal

Tiehead railway tracks tread faithfully
Gm/A# D C Bb G#maj7
The gas works to behold
[Chorus]

Hello my old friend
C G D F
Uuh Uuh Uuh

Just to see the sunset
Cadd2 Dsus2 G Bm C D
Pretty rainbows over your majestic towers

To feel your earth beneath my feet
D E C#m E C#m
Here I could stand for hours and hours
[Instrumental]
Em A Em A7 E A7 E A Am/C A Am/C
[Verse 4]
D D7/C G/B
Big machines that once were champions
Gm/A# D D7/C G/B Gm/A# D
Turn to dust under the sky
D7/C G/B
Broken windows choking chimneys
Gm/A# D C Bb G#maj7
Factory walls for miles and miles
[Chorus]
C G D
By bye my old friend
C G D F
By bye my old friend
[Outro]
G Bm
Just to see the sunset
Cadd2 Dsus2 G Bm C D
Pretty rainbows over your majestic towers

To feel your earth beneath my feet
D E C#m
Here I could stand for hours and hours
