GFrom father to son, Cthe blood runs thin  
DOoh, see faces frozen still, Aagainst the wind  
GThe seam is split, Cthe coal face cracked  
GThe lines are long, Cthere's no going back  
GThrough hands of steel Cand a heart of stone  
GOur labour day Chas come and goneD  
 
And you Aleave me holding on  
In FRed Hill Town, see lights go down, oh  
 
R:GI'm hanging on (D)  
You're all that's left to Fhold on to 
CI'm ill waiting 
GI'm hanging onD  
You're all that's left to Fhold on to  
 
GThe glass is cut, Cthe bottle runs dry  
GOur love runs cold Cin the caverns of the night  
We're wounded by fear, injured in doubt  
I can lose myself, you I can't live without  
Yeah you keep me holding on  
In Red Hill Town, as the lights go down  
 
R:  
 
We scorch the earth, set fire to the sky  
Stoop so low to reach so high  
A link is lost, the chain undone  
GWe wait all day Cfor the night to Dcome  
And it Amicomes  
Like a hunter Fchild  
 
R: 
 
GLove Dslowly stripped away  
FLove, has Cseen a better day  
 
GI'm hanging on (D)  
Lights go down on FRed Hill Town (C) 
Lights go down on GRed Hill (D)  
Lights go down on FRed Hill Town (C) 
Lights go down on (GmajRed) Hill
