[B] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ Took [C#m] my first breath where the muddy rises [E] spills into the Gulf of Mexico
And the [B] skyline is colored by chemical plants that put [A] bread on the table of the working man
[C#m] Where the working man does his best to provide
[E] safety and shelter for kids and a while
[B] Giving a little of his soul every day [A] making overtime to keep the wolves away

[A] _ _ I [C#m] was barely 13 when the company man
[E] Tried to dig my daddy's grave
[B] It happened on a French owned tanker ship spilling [A] poison in the Galveston Bay
[C#m] Where the liquid fire filled his lungs and his eyes
[E] Silence in him more than cries
[B] Cold and dream
Dead stinging pain [A] he fought like hell to keep the wolves away _ _ _ _

[C#m] the next few years dad was sick as a dog, but [E] he made a
Recovery just to spot the odds
[B] The settlement came and we moved out of town where [A] the sky is in heavy with refined
Yeah, [C#m] he's still alive he's doing good he's in his 50s, but [E] the money's running out and he's painting for pennies
[B] So I'm going broke with every song I play [A] cuz now it's my turn to keep the wolves away
