_ [A] _ When [B] I was [E] a humble _ _ _
_ [A] _ working [B] _ _
[E] in snow, _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ [B] putting [E] up _ fences _
_ [A] _ in [B] shadow of [E] Skid Row. _
It [A] _ _ [B] was cold in [E] the morning _ _ and [A] _ _ [B] my hands [E] couldn't feel, _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [E] but the hammers kept raining down _ [A] _ on
[B] _ _
me when poles _ _ _ _ [E] of steel _ _ [A] and _
_ [B] _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [Bm] sky made [E] me _ crasher.

[E] ever sung. _ _

_ [A] _ _ [B] sweet scream [E] the air. _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ [B] I left [E] the _ _ farmhouse [A] on _ [B] a song and [E] a prayer. _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [Bm] And I've been to [E] your city _ _
_ [A] and [B] the [E] trash they call pain. _ _
_ [A] _ _ [B] Where the hammers [E] keep raining down _
_ [A] as [Bm] the fates in [E] yearning. _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [B] But whenever [E] I'm riding o'er [A] _ _ [B] and I look from [E] the train. _ _ _
_ [A] _ I [B] can still see [E] the _ farm boy, _ [A] _ _ [B] a _ _ _ _ _ lonely _ _ _ _ [E] _
