Honest Work

G D/F Em D C (2x) Em I watched the night turn into day C Grab my keys and make my way G I’m headed East Em Ill put some gas into the truck C I’m downin’ coffee’s by the cup G I never sleep Em When you get to where you’re going C Grab your shovel G And start makin’ your way down Em Hell I’ve been diggin holes like this C For twenty years and will be G Till I’m in the ground Em When the day is finally over C It’s a couple hours back G To my old place Em Single bedroom with a bathroom C I live alone and G Don’t take up much space Em And I’ll wrestle off my dirty clothes C And I try to get the mud G Out of my nails Em Then I crawl back into bed C Twenty years the same routine G Without a fail G D/F Em D C Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah G D/F Em D C Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah Em I try to sleep when I’m in pain C And I can’t make it go away so G I just hurt Em Every night is more the same C I have this dream G Where I am drownin’ under dirt Em I like to think for all it’s worth C At least I’m doin’ Honest Work G Ain’t it a shame Em That I’ve been trading sweat on wages C Twenty years and I’ve got G Nothin’ to my name Em And I used to wanna make it mine C Somewhere down along the line G I bellied up Em And all the dreams I have today C Were just the same as yesterday G There just grown up Em Now I’m old for Forty Three C Diggin’ holes for almost free G Ain’t it a shame Em That I’ve been tradin’ dreams on wages C Twenty years and all I’ve got G Are aches and pains G D/F Em D C Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah G D/F Em D C Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah G D/F Em D C (2x) Em I try to sleep when I’m in pain C And I can’t make it go away so G I just hurt (Single Strum) Em Every night is more the same C I have this dream G Where I am drownin’ under dirt
