Capo 1st Fret
Intro: (Gadd9) (Gadd9)
(Gadd9) I've seen mornings when a (C/G) thousand bales of (Gadd9) hay
Looked like a mountain to a (D) boy my (Gadd9) age
And I've seen my daddy in that (C/G) hot southern (Gadd9) sun
Move those mountains (D) one by (Gadd9) one
And I've seen that same man come home from the mill
Pull forty hours for a hundred-dollar bill
I've watched him struggle and I've watched him age
Raising a family on a working man's wage
(D) I grew up on a (C) working man's (G) wage
(D) Blood, sweat and tears on every (C) dollar he made
For the (G) little he (G/B) earned there was (C) so much he (G) gave
And (Am) I hope (G/B) I am (C) worthy (NC) of a working man's wage
SOLO
I pick this guitar six nights a week
Daddy can't believe they're paying me
It would be so easy to let it go to my head
But there's just one thing that I can't forget
(D) I grew up on a (C) working man's (G) wage
(D) Blood, sweat and tears on every (C) dollar he made
For the (G) little he (G/B) earned there was (C) so much he (G) gave
And (Am) I hope (G/B) I am (C) worthy....
(Am) I hope (G/B) I am (C) worthy (NC) of a working man's wage
(Gadd9) I've seen mornings when a (C/G) thousand bales of hay
Looked like a mountain to a (NC) boy my age (Gadd9)
