Welfare Line -- The Highwaymen Chords

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Well now boys I've been to Bethlehem, rode there on a [G] big steam train
Lost two [D] fingers in the steel mills and I ain't [A] going back [D] again
I fought for my country
Lord knows I did my [G] best
Crawling across some [D] foreign field they pinned [Am] a ribbon [Dm] to my [D] chest
[G] So pass around the bottle boys, let's talk about [D] old times
Life's rolling in, it's cold as sin [A] here [D] on the welfare line _ _
_ _ _ Served on the Georgia road gang, couldn't pay the [G] debts I owe
Cause I ain't [D] made of silver and I [A] ain't ever seen [D] no gold
I still remember Rachel, soft as a velvet [G] gown
They laid her in [D] the pauper's grave on the other [Dm] side of [D] town
[G] So pass around the bottle boys, let's talk [D] about old times
Life's rolling in, it's cold as sin [A] here on the [D] welfare line _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[A] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now some folks are born to money, you know [G] I wish them well
If the devil should ever [D] roam my soul, I swear I'd [A] never [D] sin
[G] So pass around the bottle boys, let's talk [D] about old times
Life's rolling in, it's [Dm] cold as sin [A] here on the [D] welfare line _
[G] Pass around the bottle boys, let's talk [D] about old times
Life's rolling in, it's cold as [A] sin here on the [D] welfare line _
