[Verse 1]
---------------------
Em
  Pass me that lovely little gun
C
 My dear, my darling one
Am
  The cleaners are coming one by one
G                               Em
 You don't even want to let them  start

[Bridge (1)]

C | Am | G 

[Verse 2]

Em
  They are knocking now upon your door
C
 They measure the room, they know the score
Am
  They're mopping up the butcher's floor
G
 Of your broken little hearts

[Bridge (2)]

Em C  Am G
Oh Oh Oh O Children

[Verse 3]

Em
  Forgive us now for what we've done
C
 It started out as a bit of fun

  Here, take these before we run away
G                  Em
 The keys to the gulag

[Verse 4]

Em
  Here comes Frank and poor old Jim
C
 They're gathering round with all my friends
Am
  We're older now, the light is dim
G
 And you are only just beginning



[Verse 5]
---------------------
Em
  We have the answer to all your fears
C
 It's short, it's simple, it's crystal clear
Am
  It's round about and it's somewhere here
G                    Em
 Lost amongst our winnings

[Chorus (2)]

 Rejoice,   rejoice

[Verse 6]

  The cleaners have done their job on you

 They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove
Am
  They've hosed you down, you're good as new
G                           Em
 And they're lining up to inspect you

[Pre-Verse (2)]
---------------------
   C  Am G
Oh Oh Oh O Children

[Verse 7]
---------------------
Em
  Poor old Jim's white as a ghost
C
 He's found the answer that we lost
Am
  We're all weeping now, weeping because
G                                 Em
 There ain't nothing we can do to protect you

[Chorus (3)]

 Rejoice,   rejoice

[Outro]
---------------------
Em
Hey, little train, we are all jumping on
    C
The train that goes to the Kingdom
Am
  We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
        G
And the train ain't even left the station
Em
Hey, little train, wait for me!
  C
I once was blind, but now I see
Am
Have you left a seat for me?
        G
Is that such a stretch of the imagination?
Em
Hey little train, wait for me!
      C
I was held in chains, but now I'm free
Am
  I'm hanging in there, don't you see?
        G
In this process of elimination
Em
Hey, little train, we are all jumping on
    C
The train that goes to the Kingdom

[Fade Out]
---------------------
Am
  We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
       G
It's beyond my wildest expectation
Em
Hey, little train, we are all jumping on
    C
The train that goes to the Kingdom
Am
  We're happy, Ma, we're having fun
        G
And the train ain't even left the station
