[Fm] [Db]
[Fm] Let me [F] down easy
[Bb] [Fm] I've been on this run too long
If I [Eb] don't read your [Bbm] letter
You can't make me your [Ab] dear [Fm] John

[Fm] Follow [F] the guidelines
[Fm] Tonight the boys and me make toe
We're pulling [F] all these [Bb] shadows up and down

[Bb] [Db]
[Eb] [Db] And the [Ab] river gives and then she takes it all [Db] away
[Fm] Working man [Eb] he [Ab] has no say
But
[Fm] twenty [F]-eight days on
From [Db] here the towns [Eb] all look [Fm] the same
Twenty-eight [F] days of muddy [Bb] water
Gets [Db] into [Eb] your [Fm] vein

[Db] And the [Ab] river gives and then she takes it all [Db] away
[Fm] Working man he [G] [Ab] has no say
Shotgun shacks like broken smiles

All the miles of sweat and tears
[Fm] Washed up [Eb] on the banks [Ab] round here
