    D
I recall
  Bm        A      G
A schoolboy coming home
                  D
Through fields of cane
     Bm       A       G
To a house of tin and timber

           D
And in the sky
  Bm      A       G
A rain of falling cinders
     G       A
    G
The waste, memory wastes


REPEAT MAIN RIFF  x2


    D
I recall
  Bm     A      G
A boy in bigger pants 
          D
Like everyone
     Bm      A     G
Just waiting for a chance

             D
His father's watch
   Bm      A      G
He left it in the showers
     G       A
    G
The waste, memory wastes
        G
And the waste, memory wastes


REPEAT MAIN RIFF  x4


    D
I recall
  Bm     A        G
A bigger brighter world
           D
A world of books
     Bm    A        G
And silent times in thought

             D
And then the railroad 
    Bm       A         G
The railroad takes him home
                  D
Through fields of cattle 
Bm      A         G
Through fields of cane

     G       A
    G
The waste, memory wastes
        G
And the waste, memory wastes
