VERSE: Em I?ve worked my fingers to the bone not a pretty little penny have I got to show I ain?t looking for much B walkdown just a little bit of rest by the side of the road Em I lift my voice to the forces above A the Lords of labor and the Goddess of love Em B ain?t I been a good, hard working INTRO faithful servant and son INSTRUMENTAL: Em F#7add4 G6 Em (2x)
Em F#7add4 then the sky turns black G6 Em walkdown and it cracks with a thundering voice Em F#7add4 work is what you are when you?re breathing in and out G6 Em til your final breath falls to the floor
BRIDGE: Em A so swing down that sledgehammer through the wood Em a little test of mind over flesh oughtta do you good get up off the ground A you can lay down when the day is done B walkdown and on the seventh day INTRO you can lay in the morning sun VERSE: Em I want to make my home on a mountain high just me and my lover and the big old sky I ain?t asking for much B just a little bit of rest before the day that I die Em I lift my voice to the forces above A the Lords of labor and the Goddess of love Em B ain?t I been a good, hard working INTRO faithful servant and son INSTRUMENTAL: Em F#7add4 G6 Em (2x)
Em F#7add4 then the sky turns black G6 Em walkdown and it cracks with a thundering voice Em F#7add4 work is what you are when you?re breathing in and out G6 Em til your final breath falls to the floor
BRIDGE: Em A so swing down that sledgehammer through the wood Em a little test of mind over flesh oughtta do you good get up off the ground A you can lay down when the day is done B walkdown and on the seventh day Em you can lay in the morning sun
