VERSE:
               Em
I've worked my fingers to the bone
Not a pretty little penny have I got to show
I ain't looking for much
                                                B7
Just a little bit of rest by the side of the road
          Em
I lift my voice to the forces above
             A
the Lords of labor and the Goddess of love
               Em         B7
Ain't I been a good, hard working
                      Em7
Faithful, servant and son

BRIDGE
         Em        G/F#
then the sky turns black
       G
and it cracks with a thundering voice
                 Em                               G/F#
work is what you are when you're breathing in and out
               G
til your final breath falls to the floor

Em                  A
so swing down that sledgehammer through the wood

a little test of mind over flesh oughtta do you good
Em
and get up off the ground
             A
you can lay down when the day is done
            B7                                      Em7
and on the seventh day you can lay in the morning sun


VERSE:
                  Em
I want to make my home on a mountain high
just me and my lover and the big old sky
I ain't asking for much
                                                 B7
just a little bit of rest before the day that I die
           Em
I lift my voice to the forces above
             A
the Lords of labor and the Goddess of love
               Em         B
ain't I been a good, hard working
                      Em7
faithful servant and son

BRIDGE:

                 Em                               G/F#
work is what you are when you're breathing in and out
               G
til your final breath falls to the floor


CHORUS (x2)
Em                  A
so swing down that sledgehammer through the wood
                            Em
a little test of mind over flesh oughtta do you good

and get up off the ground
             A
you can lay down when the day is done
            B7                                      Em
and on the seventh day you can lay in the morning sun
