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