Intro.: --- | (Am) | (F) | (Am) | (F) ---
I used to (Am)love this town and this (F)neighborhood
The streets were (Am)safe, the schools were (F)good
The mill was (Am)hummin' twenty-four (F)seven
I was formin' on the (Am)line, three to eleven (F)
But eighteen (Am)months, two days a-(F)go
The Mill closed (Am)down and (F)moved to Mexi-(G)co
(Chorus)
(Am) I payed my bills, (F) I payed my (G)dues
(Am) I payed my (F)share of (G)taxes too
(Am) Now I can't buy (F) my baby (G)shoes
(Am) I've got the (F)red, white, (G)pink slip (Am)blues
I hide the (Am)pickup truck in Ricky Browns (F)garage
Over on the (Am)next block, cause there's (F)Repo's to dodge
I slip out the (Am)back door, Lord, I never (F)thought I'd live to see this day
Where gonna (Am)need that truck when they (F)come to take the (G)house away
(Chorus)
(Am) I payed my bills, (F) I payed my (G)dues
(Am) I payed my (F)share of (G)taxes too
(Am) Now I can't even buy (F) my little baby (G)shoes
(Am) I've got these (F)red, white, (G) damn pink slip (Am)blues
Inst.: --- | (F) | (Am) | (F) | (Am) --- |
(Am) You know I love my country and (F)I'm not one to complain
(Am) But there's a lot of us that feel like we've been left (F)splendid here
(G)Out in the rain
(Chorus)
(Am) I payed my bills, (F) I payed my (G)dues
(Am) I payed my (F)share of (G)taxes too
(Am) Now I can't (F)buy my kids no (G)shoes
(Am) I've got these (F)red, white, (G) pink slip (Am) blues
Outro.: | (F) (G) | (Am) | (F) (G) | (Am) --- fade out
