Hard Working Man

(início)

(intro)  A
                       A
    I'm a hard workin' man, I wear a steel hard hat,
           D
    I can ride, rope, hammer and paint,
        A
    do things with my hands that most men can't.
       E
    I can't get ahead no matter how hard I try,
                   A                                     A
    I'm getting         really good at barely getting by.
                       A
    Got everything I own by the sweat of my brow,
              D
    from my four-wheel drive to my cowboy boots,
A
    I owe it all to my blue-collar roots.
                   E
    Feel like I'm workin' overtime on a runaway train,
                   A
    I've got to        bust loose from this ball and chain.
       D        C                 A
I'm a hard,         hard-workin' man,
            E                                          A     A7
I've got it all on the line for a piece of the promised land.
        D           C              A
And I'm burnin' my candle at both ends,
                       E                                     A
about the only way to keep the fire going is to out-run the wind.
                   A
    Come Friday night I like to party hard,
D
    I carry on with the Cadillac cuties,
               A
    spend my whole week's pay on some weekend beauty.
     E
    Come Monday morning I'm the first to arrive,
             A
    I ain't nothin' but business from nine to five.
       D        C                 A
I'm a hard,         hard-workin' man,
            E                                           A    A7
I've got it all on the line for a piece of the promised land.
        D           C              A
And I'm burnin' my candle at both ends,
                       E                                     A
about the only way to keep the fire going is to out-run the wind.
                     E                                          A
    I can't wait to get up in the mornin', and do it all over again,
                 E                        A   D A
    well, I'm a hard-livin', hard-workin' man.
    And women, too.
