Workin' Man

	  		(G) Sittin' alone in the dark, wastin' my time in a park 
'cause (C) I got nowhere to (G) go 
had me a job til the market fell out 
tried hard to borrow but there was no help 
now (C) I've got nowhere to (G) go 
 
Chorus 
(C) I need a job for (D) these two hands 
I'm a workin' (C) man with nowhere to (G) go 
 
(G) One last look at the land, auctioneer with his gavel in hand 
and (C) he says, "it's got to (G) go" 
worked this piece all my life 
it broke my heart then took my wife 
now (C) I've got nothin' to (G) show 
 
Chorus 
(Em) Wandered aimless in the (C) city 
with my dirt workin' boot and my (D) ol' straw hat in (G) hand (C)(G) 
(F#)(Em) singin' a song by Woody (C) Guthrie 
this land is your land; it ain't (D) my land 
(NC) I'm a workin' (C) man with nowhere to (G) go 
 
(G) I was born to the sunrise, breaking back all day 
now (C) I've got something to (G) say (C)(G) 
I am broke but not broken 
I am not alone 'cause there's a (C) lot of folks 
with nowhere to (G) go 
 
(C) Are they ever going to (D) understand 
you can't leave a workin' (C) man 
with nowhere to (G) go 
 
(C) Are they ever going to (D) understand 
you can't leave a workin' (C) man 
with nowhere to (G) go
