Chords for Workin' On A World (Iris DeMent Cover) Live at Wood Street

[Eb] _ _ I got so down in trouble _ I nearly [Bb] lost my [Eb] _ [Bb] head
I started waking every _ morning [Gm] _ filled with [Cm] sadness, fear, and [F] dread
The world I took for granted _ [Eb] _ was crashing [Bb] to the [Eb] _ [Bb] ground
[Eb] And I [Bb] realized that I might not [F] live long enough to ever see [Bb] it turn around
Oh, but then I got to thinking _ [Eb] _ of the ones who came [Eb] before
_ [Bb] _ Of all the sacrifices that [C] they made to open up so many [Cm] doors
[F] _ _ Doors [Bb] I got to walk through, [Eb] _ on streets [Bb] paid for _ [Eb] me
My people who were working _ [F] on a world they never [Bb] got to [Eb] _ [Bb] see
Oh, I'm working [Eb] on a world _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] where they'll see
_ I'm joining forces [Gm] with the warriors [C] of love who came [Cm] before
And we'll follow [F] you and me, I get up [Bb] in the morning
_ [Eb] _ Knowing I'm [Bb] privileged _ just [Eb] to be
Working on [Bb] a world _ _ [F] I may never [Bb] _
[Eb] see

[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ Oh, I don't have all the _ answers [Eb] to the troubles [Bb] of the _
[Eb] day
[Bb] But neither did all our ancestors, _ [Gm] they _ [C] _ persevered anyway
_ [F] When I see a [Bb] little baby _ _ reaching out its arms to [Eb] me
_ _ I remember [Bb] working _ [F] on a world that I [Bb] may never [Eb] _ [Bb] see
Oh, I'm [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] working on a world where they'll see _
_ _ I'm joining forces [Gm] with the _ warriors [C] of love who came [Cm] before
And we'll follow [F] you and me, I get up [Bb] in the morning
_ [Eb] Knowing I'm privileged [Bb] _ _
just to [Eb] be
_ Working on [Bb] a world _ _ [F] I may never see
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ I'm working on a world _ _ [F] _ _ I may _ never see
