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