[E] [B]
With an aching back, blood, tears, [D#] and sweat, [E] blue collar dreams [C#] keep me in debt.
[B] Can't tell you why I don't leave this old one-horse town behind.
[E] My good [F#] intentions [B] withered on the vine.
Hustling [F#] for an echo, [E] but I [B] can't save the dime.
I try to walk that straight but narrow line.
Well, I need a small vacation, but I ain't got the time.
Bright and [E] early [F#] I'll be [B] back to the grind.
With an aching back, blood, tears, [D#] and sweat, [E] blue collar dreams [C#] keep me in [G#m] debt.
Can't [B] tell you why I don't leave this old one-horse town behind.
My good intentions withered on the vine.

Paycheck to paycheck, [E] ain't the way things [B] ought to be.
[E] Hard [F#] times they seem to [B] never end.
Yesterday the groceries, [E] today I'll [B] pay the rent.
[E] By Friday [F#] all my money [B] will be spent.
With an aching back, blood, [D#] tears, and sweat, blue [E] collar dreams keep me [C#] in debt.
[B] Can't tell you why I don't leave this old one-horse town behind.
My good intentions withered on the vine.
