Intro
D
[Verse 1]
D
Me and mine have worked this land
G D
As long as my grandfather can remember
D
Plowin' soil, diggin' holes
G D
Haulin' coal, to strippin' down the timber
A G D
Then they showed up, they shut us down
A G D
Same old story, the same old town
D G
"It's like we don't matter", momma said
D
"At least that's how it seems"
A G
And that's the day I woke up
D
From the American dream
[Verse 2]
D
What are you supposed to do,
G
When the God you're prayin' to
D
Up and goes missin'?
D
Leaves a trail of unpaid bills
G D
Broken homes and opioid addiction
A
And then a politician shows up
G D
Promisin' that
A
He'll return the jobs
G D
That God himself could not bring back
D
Fool me once, shame on you
G D
Fool me twice, shame on me
A G
Yeah, that's the day I gave up
D
On the American dream
[Chorus]
Em
These lamentations
G D
Are gettin' too damn hard to sing
Em
These lamentations
G D
Are gonna be the death of me
[Verse 3]
D
You see, me and mine, we ain't the kind
G D
To sit around idle and complain
D
We're tough as nails, mean as hell
G D
Without an ounce of quit in our veins
A G D
But the harder we work, the more they take
A G D
Till all the good is gone, for goodness sake
D
Neither the left or the right
G D
Are gonna fight for folks stuck in between
A G
The way things really are
D
The American dream
[Chorus]
Em
These lamentations
G D
Are gonna be the death of me
Em
These lamentations
G D
Are gettin' too damn hard to sing
Em
These lamentations
G D
Are gonna be the death of me
Em
These lamentations
G D
Are gettin' too damn hard to sing
