First One! Woohoo!
[verse 1]
Bm
I learned a fella, he ought to keep,
A Bm
some thoughts to himself
Bm
Every man, he has a hunger
A Bm
That he must keep on the shelf
Bm
I don’t care what no one says
A Bm
Because the truth is people change
Bm
I stayed on that straight and narrow
A Bm
But my baby took a different train
Bm
I left my past there hidden deep
A Bm
On the Texas Oklahoma line
Bm
But I feel them spirits with me
F#
No they’re never too far behind
Bm
I miss the nights on the river gambling
A Bm
Out on a boat in Louisian’
Bm
And I recall a loss near full moons bay
A Bm
On just one single hand
[Chorus]
G D
Cause it ain’t hard to keep a job
A D A
But a living is hard to make
G D
B grown man cries to feel alive
F#
and in his shame he starts to pray
G A
He says father not mine
D A G
but thy will be done
G F#
I’ll be where you want me
Bm
before the rising sun
[verse 2]
Bm
I met a salesman with a bible
A Bm
In a pinstripe three-piece suit
Bm
In one breath he took my money,
A Bm
With the next he spoke the truth
Bm
Well the bank has opened up
A Bm
Overnight they seized the town
Bm
All the widows keep on sinking
A Bm
Like a hound dog bound to drown
Bm
I feel the madness creeping in
A Bm
Sanity slips my grip
Bm
I hear a string band playing Dixie
F#
The war is lost but they don’t quit
Bm
Oh my baby left me broken-hearted
A Bm
No man has ever felt so alone,
Bm
So now I head down to the corner
A Bm
The only place I feel at home
[Chorus]
G D
Cause it ain’t hard to keep a job
A D A
But a living is hard to make
G D
B grown man cries to feel alive
F#
and in his shame he starts to pray
G A
He says father not mine
D A G
but thy will be done
G F#
I’ll be where you want me
Bm
before the rising sun
[verse 3]
Bm
She comes from the reservation
A Bm
And every night the drunk men ask
Bm
Where’s my Umatilla princess
A Bm
I’m only here to see her dance
Bm
With a feather in her hair
A Bm
She lays her body bare
Bm
she takes them for their money
A Bm
And she leaves them with a stare
Bm
See the men thinks she likes dancing
A Bm
Each believes he owns her soul
Bm
They don’t realize that beneath her smile
F#
Is a pain they’ll never know
Bm
No it’s a truth they’ve never heard
A Bm
It’s a truth they won’t accept
Bm
That a person doesn’t stand a chance
A Bm
When they’ve never been shown respect
[Chorus]
G D
Cause it ain’t hard to keep a job
A D A
But a living is hard to make
G D
B grown girl cries to feel alive
F#
and in her shame she starts to pray
G A
She says father not mine
D A G
but thy will be done
G F#
I’ll be where you want me
Bm
before the rising sun
