In The Hands of A Working Man-Johnny Reid
(Capo on 3rd Fret) Chords by Kenny Perry by request
G D/Gb Em C
Early in the morning I could smell that diesel burning
G Em G D
and I'd watch him and his old truck, go rumbling down the road.
G D/Gb Em C
And later on in the evening, in the distance I would hear him
G D G
like lightning I'd go straight out that front door.
Chorus:
G C Em D Dsus C Em G D
Into the hands of a working man life was easy, to understand,
G C Em D Dsus C D G
now looking back on who I am, right there in the hands of a working man
C Em D Dsus
G D/Gb Em C
I can still remember it was a cold day in December
G Em G D
I walked into the kitchen I saw a tear rolling down his face
G D/Gb Em C
he was sitting with my Mother they were leaning on each other
G D G
I listened there she whispered I have faith
Chorus:
C Em D Dsus C Em G D
C Em C D
You know the more I see the deeper I believe, the best place for this world to be
G C Em D C Em G D
is in the hands of a working man, where love is easy to understand
G C Em D Dsus C D G
now looking back from where I am, there I am, in the hands of a working man
C D G C Em D Dsus G
This world turns in the hand of a working man
This is played on piano so I think I have it pretty close for guitar, thanks for the requests
