Intro: G 


Kelli drove us down the lake 
     C 
On a bright Ohio day 
       G 
And we looked across the railway yards 
                       D 
At the hoppers painted grey 
     G 
That coal train from Kentucky, man  
      C 
She's come a long, long way 
             G 
Down in Ashtabula 
     D              G    G6  G 
On a sunny summer's day 



Walked down to the harbour 
     C 
Down to the harbour side 
          G 
Where the coal was piled up waiting 
                   D 
High and black and wide 
         G 
And it's waiting for a laker, man 
   C 
To carry it away 
             G 
Down in Ashtabula 
     D              G    G6  G 
On a sunny summer's day 


Chorus: 
        C 
And the tilting bridge, itself swings back 
    G 
And sail is given way 
        C 
And the cobbled streets that climb the hills 
    G             D 
Are fading red to grey 


       G 
In the maritime museum 
   C 
So high above the waves 
    G 
The pictures of the past recalled 
                       D 
In black and white and grey 
        G 
But the Masters and the ships are gone 
D 
Long since passed away 
       G 
Down in Ashtabula 
     D              G    G6  G 
On a sunny summers day 


Instrumental: G   C   G   D   G   C   G  D  G 


Chorus: 
        C 
And the tilting bridge, itself swings back 
    G 
And sail is given way 
        C 
And the cobbled streets that climb the hills 
    G             D 
Are fading red to grey

On a sunny summer's day 
        C            G 
We were down in Ashtabula 
     D              G    G6  G  G6  G 
On a sunny summer's day
