I've been selling my soul, [Eb]
working all day, [Bb] overtime hours [F]
for bullshit [Gm] pay,
so I can sit out here and waste my [Eb] life away, [Bb] drag back home and drown [F] my troubles away.
[Gm] It's a damn shame what the [Eb] world's gotten to, [Bb] that people like me, [F]
people like you,
[Gm] wish I could just wake up [Eb] and it not be true, [Bb] but it is, [F] oh it is, living [Gm] in the new world.
[Eb]
[Bb] With an old soul, [F]
these [Gm] rich men north of Richmond, [Eb] Lord knows they all [Bb] just wanna have total [Dm] control.
Wanna know what [Gm] you think, wanna know what [Eb] you do, and they don't think [Bb] you know,
but I know that [F] you do, cause your dollar [Gm] ain't shit, and it's taxed to [Eb] no end, cause the rich [Bb] men, cause the [F] rich men.
[G] [Eb]

I wish [D] politicians would look out [Eb] for miners, and not [Bb] just miners on an island [F] somewhere,
Lord we [Gm] got folks in the street, ain't [Eb] got nothing to eat, and [Bb] they all be milking [F]
welfare.
Well God if [Gm] you're 5 foot 3, and [Eb] you're 300 pounds, [Bb] taxes ought not to pay, for [F] your bags of fudge rounds,
young [Gm] men are putting themselves [Eb] 6 feet in the ground, [Bb] cause all this damn country does, is [F] keep on kicking them down.
Lord [Gm] it's a damn shame [Eb] what the world's gotten to, [Bb] that people like me, [F] people like you,
[Gm] wish I could just wake up, and it [Eb] not be true, [Bb] but it is, oh it [F] is, living [Gm] in the new world.
