Mill Boys(Chords)

	        
verse 1 
 
C       G            D                 Em 
Sky was black, Lord, rain came pouring down 
C             G              D         Am 
Number 12 bus shuffling down Shaw Road way 
C          G                     D               Em 
Mules keep spinning, blackfaced lifers peck the ground 
C                 G              D           Am 
Sun comes up like lightning over Tango Hills grey 


       G                       Am 
We are mill boys, stuck on the hill boys 
             C           G 
Stuck in the mill boys, 'till our dying day 



SOLO  Am C G Em Am C G  
       Am C G Em Am G D 
 
verse 2 
 
C                G                    D                Em 
Cotton mill will get you, boy, she'll take you to your grave 
C               G              D                   Am 
Tell you boy to use your head, apprentice out your days 
C               G                  D              Em 
You'll end up a nothing, boy, with cotton as your trade 
C                 G              D          Am 
Sun comes up like lightning over Tango Hill grey 


       G                       Am 
We are mill boys, stuck on the hill boys 
             C           G 
Stuck in the mill boys, 'till our dying day 


       G                       Am 
We are mill boys, stuck on the hill boys 
             C           G 
Stuck in the mill boys, 'till our dying day 




 
verse 3 
 
     C             G             
It's easy to see a poor boy's blues 
          Am            G 
When he's working every day 



ENJOY...
