 D
Big smoke, standing in the mornin’ 
                           A
Big smoke, pointed at the sky
Bm                         G
Big smoke, take away our brother
 D               A              D
Lift him up and show us how to fly


 D
Big smoke, louder than the thunder
                             A
Big smoke, taller than the storm
Bm                            G
Big smoke, rise above these troubles
 D              A                D
Lift us up and keep us safe and warm 


    A                    G
And I don’t know why we ride on the flames
        Em                     Bm
‘Cause sometimes we’re riding blind 
 A                 G
All I know is the future is waiting 
Em                   A
Out there for us to find


 D
Big smoke, ten thousand years of building
                             A
Big smoke, all the careful plans 
Bm                    G
Big smoke, good imagination
 D              A              D
Lifted by a billion steady hands


    A                    G
And I don’t know why we ride on the flames
        Em                     Bm
‘Cause sometimes we’re riding blind 
 A                 G
All I know is the future is waiting 
Em                   A
Out there for us to find


 D
Big smoke, no one says it’s easy
                                  A
Big smoke, more fragile than you seem
Bm                           G
Big smoke, carries precious cargo
 D              A                D
Show us how to live and how to dream
        Bm                        G
Oh, and big smoke carry precious cargo
 D              A                D
Show us how to live and how to dream
