Verse
Am
Here in northeast Ohio, back in 1803
Cadd9 Am
James and Dan Heaton found the ore that was lining Yellow Creek.
Am
They built a blast furnace here along the shore,
Cadd9 Am
And they made the cannonballs that helped the Union win the war.
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Here in Youngstown
Am
Here in Youngstown
C G
My sweet Jenny I'm sinkin' down
Am
Here darlin' in Youngstown
[Verse]
Am
Well my daddy worked the furnaces, kept 'em hotter than hell
Cadd9
I come home from 'Nam, worked my way to scarfer,
Cadd9 Am
E job that'd suit the devil as well.
Am
Taconite coke and limestone fed my children and made my pay
Cadd9
Them smokestacks reachin' like the arms of God
Am
Into a beautiful sky of soot and clay
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Here in Youngstown
Am
Here in Youngstown
C G
My sweet Jenny I'm sinkin' down
Am
Here darlin' in Youngstown
[Verse]
C G
Well, my daddy come on the Ohio works
Am
When he come home from World War Two.
Cadd9
Now the yard's just scrap and rubble
Am
He said "Them big boys did what Hitler couldn't do."
C G
These mills they built the tanks and bombs
Am
That won this country's wars.
Cadd9
We sent our sons to Korea and Vietnam.
Am
Now we're wondering what they were dying for.
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Here in Youngstown
Am
Here in Youngstown
C G
My sweet Jenny I'm sinkin' down
Am
Here darlin' in Youngstown
[Verse]
Am
From the Monongahela Valley to the Mesabi iron range
Cadd9 Am
To the coal mines of Appalachia, the story's always the same.
Am
Seven hundred tons of metal a day, now sir, you tell me the world's changed.
Cadd9 Am
Once I made you rich enough, rich enough to forget my name.
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Here in Youngstown
Am
Here in Youngstown
C G
My sweet Jenny I'm sinkin' down
Am
Here darlin' in Youngstown
[Outro]
C G
When I die I don't want no part of heaven
Am
I would not do heaven's work well
Cadd9
I pray the devil comes and takes me to stand
Am
In the fiery furnaces of hell.
