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

[Puente] Em  C  Am  G  D

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                 D        Em
   Of your broken little hearts

Em    C    Am   G    D
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children

Em
   Forgive us now for what we've done
C
   It started out as a bit of fun
Am
   Here, take these before we run away
G           D       Em
   The keys to the gulag

Em        C7M
   Oooo children

   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              D            Em
   And you are only just beginning

Em    C    Am   G    D
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children

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, it's somewhere here
G           D        Em
   Lost amongst our winnings

[Estribillo]

C7M

G     D        Em
   Rejoice, rejoice

Em
   The cleaners have done their job on you
C
   They're hip to it, man, they're in the groove
Am
   They've hosed you down, you're good as new
G                 D             Em
   They're lining up to inspect you

Em    C    Am   G    D
Oooo-oooo-oooo-oooo children

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

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                           D        Em
   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                              D   Em
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                      D    Em
   In this process of elimination

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                           D        Em
   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                           D        Em
   And the train ain't even left the station
