Chords for The Wellermen- Sixteen Tons (Official Audio)

Hey, hey, hey, Bobby!
You gonna start us off with this one?
_ [B] Some people say a man is made out of mud
A poor man's made [F#] out of muscle and blood
[Bm] Muscle and blood and skin and [F#] bones
A man that's weak in the back, that's [B] strong, you know
Sixteen tons, what'd he get?
[D] Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter [D] don't you call me, [Em] cos I can't go
I owe my [Bm] soul to the company store
Next up on the mic, we got our boy Luke Taylor
I was born one morning when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel, I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons, a number [F#] nine call
And the straw [D#] boss said, well, to bless my soul
He loaded [Bm] sixteen tons, [F#] what'd he get?
[Bm] Another day older and deeper in debt
[Bm] Saint Peter don't you call [Em] me, cos I can't go
[F#] I owe my [Bm] soul to the company store
Alright, alright, I'm taking it out
I was born one morning, it was [F#] drizzling rain
A-fighting and trouble of my middle name
I was raised in a cane, break by an old mama lion
Can't no high-toned woman make me walk the line
He loaded sixteen tons, what'd he get?
[Bm] Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you [Em] call me, cos I can't go
[F#] I owe my [Bm] soul to the company store
[B] Johnny, take us home
If you see [F#] me coming, better step aside
A lot of men didn't, a lot of men died
One [A] fist of iron, the other of [F#] steel
If the right don't get it, then the left [Bm] one will
He loaded sixteen tons, what'd he get?
[Bm] Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you [Em] call me, cos I can't [Bm] go
I owe my soul to the company store
He loaded sixteen tons, [F#] what'd he get?
[Bm] Another day older [F#] and deeper in debt
[Bm] Saint Peter don't you call me, [Em] cos I can't go
I [G] owe my [A#m] _ [D#] soul
_ [F#] _ _ [D#] _ To [Bm] the company store
