Dadd4add9: x54030 (just a C moved two frets up)
[Verse 1]
G
When I get home from work
C G
I'll call up all my friends
G/F# Em7 C
And we'll go bust up something beautiful
G
we'll have to build again
G
When I get home from work
C G
I'll wrestle off my clothes
G/F# Em7 C
And leave em right inside the front door
G
'cause nobody's home to know
D
You see a hammer finds a nail
C G
And a freight train needs the rails
D Am7
And I'm doin' what I'm on this earth to do
[Chorus]
Em7 D C
And I don't think on why I'm here where it hurts
Em7 D C CMaj7
I'm just lucky to have the work
Em7 D C
Sunday morning I'm too tired to go to church
Em7 D C
But I thank God for the work
G C/G (x2)
[Verse 2]
G C G
When I get my reward my work will all be done
G/F# Em7 C G
And I will sit back in my chair beside the father and the son
G C G
No more holes to fill and no more rocks to break
G/F# Em7 C G
And no more loading boxes on the trucks for someone else's sake
D
'Cause a hammer needs a nail
C G
And the poor man's up for sale
D Am7
Guess I'm doin' what I'm on this earth to do
[Chorus]
Em7 D C
And I don't think on why I'm here where it hurts
Em7 D C CMaj7
I'm just lucky to have the work
Em7 D C
And every night I dream I'm drowning in the dirt
Em7 D C
But I thank God for the work
[Bridge]
Dadd4add9 C
And the day will come when I'll find a reason
Dadd4add9 C
And somebody proud to love a man like me
Dadd4add9 C
My back is numb, my hands are freezing
Dadd4add9 C
What I'm working for is something more than free
[Chorus]
Em7 D C
And I don't think on why I'm here where it hurts
Em7 D C CMaj7
I'm just lucky to have the work
Em7 D C
Sunday morning I'm too tired to go to church
Em7 D C
But I thank God for the work
But I thank God for the work
G C/G (x4)
G
