Dead Man's Handle Richard Thompson
Dead Man's Handle
[G] Keep your weight on the Dead Man's Handle
Or the wheels won't [Em]hold the rail
Keep your [G]weight on the Dead Man's Handle
Or the steam brake's [Em]bound to fail
Woah she'll [C]jump boys and she'll [D]slip
If your [Bm6]hand should lose it's [C]grip
On the Dead Man's [G]Handle[C]
The Dead Man's [G]Handle[C]
The Dead Man's [G]Handle [D]keep your [C]mind on the [D]journey's [G]end
Remember all of your skills and learning,
Gonna need them now
Remember all of your words of warning,
Gonna need them now
There's just one bridge left to cross
Keep her moving or the day is lost
The Dead Man's Handle...
[Bsus4]Look down, look down, look down
The [G]valley is burning, fire without end
[Bsus4]Look down, look down, look down
And you'll [A]never get back on the [D]tracks again
Keep your weight on the Dead Man's Handle
Till you see that the day is won
Too many's the foolish man who's fallen
'Cause he jumped the gun
See ahead, your brother stands
Ease the brake, stretch out your hand
The Dead Man's Handle...
