[Intro] A [Verse] A When we were kids, A We'd throw rocks at cars, A And smoke our mother's cigarettes, A After dark, in the park, D And I remember picking butts up off the D Dirty ground. A Smoking them just the same as Ma's D A When we ran out. D A G A And I ripped my heart from beneath my rib, D A G A And I lie there bleeding out in my hands. A A D A G A And I'd give a piece to each of my friends, A Just to know they understand [Chorus] A G A G A That I'd never join the union, A G A G D 'Cause I never wanted it easy. D No, I'd never join the union, A 'Cause I'd never wanted it easy. [Verse] A There's a pretty little city tower, A In Alberta to see, A And the little yellow house, A Falling down on English Street. D There's a few good men who know who I am, A And who I am not. D A G A And I ripped my heart from beneath my rib, D A G A And I lie there bleeding out in my hands. A A D A G A And I'd give a piece to you my friend, A Just to know you understand [Chorus] A G A G A That I'd never join the union, A G A G D 'Cause I never wanted it easy. D Hell, I'd never join the union, A E 'Cause I'd never wanted it easy. E Oh, oh, oh, oh E Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey [Instrumental] A G F# F [Bridge] A G Now I know why, F# F Your daddy doesn't like me. A Can't change it, G F# F I am a dirty, Rock 'n' Roller baby. A G Now I know why, F# F Your daddy doesn't like me. A Can't change it, G F# F I am a dirty, Rock 'n' Roller baby. [Chorus] A G A G A That I'd never join the union, A G A G D 'Cause I never wanted it easy. D Hell, I'd never join the union, A 'Cause I'd never wanted it easy. A That I'd never, A No, I'd never, A No, I'd never join, D That I'd never, D No, I'd never, D No, I'd never join, D That I'd never join the union, A 'Cause I never wanted it easy. A Hey!
