Dm Hey F hey hey Dm hey G There'll be Dm food on the Am table toFnight C Dm Hey F hey Dm hey G There'll be Dm pay in your Am pocket toFnight C My gut is wrenched out it's Am crunched up and broken C My life that is lived is Am no more than token Who'll F strike the flint up on the G stone and tell me Am why B If I yell C out at night there's a reAmply of blue silence The C Screen is no comfort I Am can't speak my sentence They F blew the lights at heaven's G gate and I don't know Am why Chorus: But if I Dm work all F day on the Dm blue sky G mine There'll be Dm food on the Am table toFnight C Still I Dm walk up and F down on the Dm blue sky G mine There'lll be Dm pay in your Am pocket toFnight |

C The candy store paupers lie to Am shareholders C Crossing their fingers they Am pay the truth makers F The balance sheet is G breaking up the Am sky B So I'm C caught at junction still Am waiting for medicine The C sweat of my brow keeps on Am feeding the engine Hope the F crumbs in my pocket can G keep me for another Am night Am And if the Bb/E blue sky mining Dm company Won't G come to my rescue G If the Bb/E sugar refining Dm company Won't G save me F Bb Who's gonna C save me? Am Who's gonna C save me? Am Who's gonna C save me? --Chorus C And Dm some have F sailed from a Dm distant G shore G And the Dm company takes what Am the company F wants C Ain't Dm nothing as F precious Dm as a G hole in the Dm ground Am F G F Bb Who's gonna C save me Am Who's gonna saveC me Am I F pray that sense and reaGson G Who's gonna save C me Am Who's gonna save C me Am We got nothing to fear F G C In the end the rain comes Am down C In the end the rain comes Am down F Washes clean the streets G of the blue sky C town |
