[G] I'm [Dm] ready to kill [G] you
[Am]
Started [C] [G] working here [Dm] when I was 21
[C] [G] Summer of 56, [Dm] my life had just begun
[C] [G] Back then this place [Dm] was some place to be
[F] [D] Thought I could grow [Am] with the company
[C] Never [G] took it down, [Dm] never raised a fuss
[C] Right [G] is right, even [Dm] for those of us
[C] [G] Make a dollar [Dm] while the man makes ten
[F] They say hard [E] work pays off in the [F] end
Everything I got, I [C] got in my own hands
[Dm] [F] Never wanted to be [G] no company [Am]
man
[F] [G] [Dm]
[G] [Am]
[C] So I kept my [G] eyes open, [Dm] my mouth shut
[C] Saw my [G] workload increase [Dm] and my pay cut
[C] Bought [G] a house, [Dm] started a family
[F] Still [G] had some faith [Am] in the company
[C] Hard [G] times hit, [Dm] 67 late
[C] Devil [G] must have opened [Dm] up the floodgates
[C] While [G] she left me [Dm] with some other guy
[F] In my heart, [E] yes I always knew [F] why
She was never [C] gonna understand
[F] Never wanted to be [G] no company [Am] man
[F] [G]
[Dm] [F] [G]
[Am] [F] [G]
[Dm] [F] [G]
[Am]
[C] 79 [G] brought a dose [Dm] of reality
[C] We'd all [G] heard the rumors [Dm] about the company
[C] One [G] day they shut us [Dm] down throughout the South
[F] Keeping [G] my job and [Am] moving out
[C] [G] Got hired on at the [Dm] local factory
[C] Couldn't [G] see a brood in my whole [Dm] family
[C] [G] Never thought I'd be [Dm] starting over at this [F] stage
Taking shit from some [E] punk half my [F] age
No retirement, [C] no hospital plan
[Dm] [F] Never wanted to be [G] no [Am] company man
[F]
[G] [D] [Dm] [F]
[A] [Am] [F]
[G] [Dm] [F]
[Am] [A]
[C] Long since [G] retired now [Dm] from the factory
[C] Hardly [G] ever think about [Dm] the company
[C] Kinda [G] lonesome [D] now the [Dm] kids are grown
[F] Move your way, [E] family's here, oh
[F] Got me a little house [C] and a piece of land
[Am] Never wanted to be [G] no company [A] [Am] man
[F] Sometimes in this world [C] you got to make a stand
[Dm] Never wanted to be [G] no company [Am] man
[F] [G] [Dm]
[F] [G] [Am] No company man
[F] [G] [Dm]
[F] [G] [Am]
