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