[Verse 1]
---------------------
D E    F#m
   The drinking dens are spilling out
        A
There's staggering in the square
        D
There's lads and lasses falling about
      A            E
And a crackling in the air
F#m
  Down around the dungeon doors
    A
The shelters and the queues
D
 Everybody's looking for
    A              E
Somebody's arms to fall into

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
       F#m
That's what it is
D E             F#m
   It's what it is now

[Verse 2]
---------------------
D E        F#m
   There's frost on the graves and the monuments
        A
But the taverns are warm in town
D
 People curse the government
   A          E
And shovel hot food down
F#m
Lights are out in the city hall
    A
The castle and the keep
D
The moon shines down upon it all
    A           E
The legless and asleep
        D
And it's cold on the tollgate
         A
With the wagons creeping through
D
 Cold on the tollgate
    A                    E
God knows what I could do with you
               F#m
That's what it is

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
D E             F#m   D E
   It's what it is now

[Verse 3]
---------------------
    F#m
The garrison sleeps in the citadel
               A
With the ghosts and the ancient stones
D
 High on the parapet
  A                    E
A Scottish piper stands alone
F#m
  And high on the wind
             A
The highland drums begin to roll
D
 And something from the past just comes
    A           E
And stares into my soul
        D
And it's cold on the tollgate
       A
With a Caledonian blues
D
 Cold on the tollgate
    A                     E
God knows what I could do with you

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
       F#m
That's what it is
D E             F#m
   It's what it is now
D E        F#m
   What it is
D E             F#m   D E
   It's what it is now

[Verse 4]
---------------------
D E          F#m
   There's a chink of light, there's a burning wick
          A
There's a lantern in the tower
D
Wee Willie Winkie with a candlestick
      A                    E
Still writing songs in the wee wee hours
   F#m
On Charlotte Street I take
          A
A walking stick for my hotel
D
 The ghost of Dirty Dick
   A                  E
Is still in search of Little Nell

[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
       F#m
That's what it is
D E             F#m   D E
   It's what it is now
             F#m
It's what it is
D E        F#m      D E
   What it is now…
