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