NOTE:The 2nd guitar plays the riff below over every C chord. If you haven't
     got a 2nd guitarist it sounds better just to play the riff 
     instead of the C chord.

Verse 1:
 
G              Bm                  C   
There´s no mistake I smell that smell,
			 G
It´s that time of year again,
        Bm        C
I can taste the air,
G               Bm              C
The clocks go back, railway track,
		             G	
Something blocks the line again,
                    C                      G    Bm    C
And the train runs late for the first time


Verse 2:

G          Bm               C
A pebble beach, were underneath,
			G
Pier just been painted red,
         Bm       C                      
Where I heard the news for the first time


Chorus:

Em				  Dsus2
And all the friends lay down the flowers,
Sit on the banks and drink for hours,

Talk of the way they saw him last,

Verse 3:  

G            Bm  C                             G
He´ll always be 23 yet the trains run on and on,
         Bm         C                  
Past the place they found his clothing
