[B]
I work [Em] my fingers to the bone, not a pretty little penny have I got to show.
I ain't looking for much, just a little bit of rest by the side [B] of the road.
I lift [Em] my voice to the forces above, the lord [A] of labor and the goddess of love.
[E] [F#m]
[G] [Em]
[E] Then [Em] the sky [G] turns black, and it cracks, the thundering [E] bullets work.
your final [G] breath falls to the floor.
I work [Em] my fingers to the bone, not a pretty little penny have I got to show.
I ain't looking for much, just a little bit of rest by the side [B] of the road.
I lift [Em] my voice to the forces above, the lord [A] of labor and the goddess of love.
[E] [F#m]
[G] [Em]
[E] Then [Em] the sky [G] turns black, and it cracks, the thundering [E] bullets work.
your final [G] breath falls to the floor.
