Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
Am G F C Am


Verse:
Am                          G
In the belly of the bakken, it's cold

and black and deep
F                  C
You work the hitch survive the time
Am
killin what you keep
Am                       G
Some here are forgotten, and some will

find their souls
F                 C
Some will keep on searching digging
Am
deeper holes

      G          F        G        Am
Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh


Verse:
Am                    G
So here I go, against that cold Dakota
wind
F                            C
I know where I call home but somehow
          G
I'm here again
Am
These fields are my mind and these
G
stains on my skin
       F
They don't wash off with the mud, it's
              Am
in my American blood

      G          F        G        Am
Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh


Verse:
Am                        G
Snow is blowing sideways, the

interstate shut down
          F                C
Spent the night outside of Casper in a
Am
sleepy motel town
Am
Keep rollin into Texas cause they're
G
drilling in the west
F                     C
But all those rigs out on the flats
     Am
weigh heavy on my chest
      G          Am
Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh


Am                        G
So here I go, against that hot west

Texas wind
 F                           C
I know where I call home but somehow
         G
I'm here again
      Am
These fields are my mind and these
G
stains on my skin
          F
They don't wash off with the mud, it's
               Am
in my American blood
      G          F        G        Am
Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh


         C
Well I've worked in North Dakota,
   G
Colorado, California
       F
And in every boom that's come and gone
  Am
between
            C
I've been a chainhand and a pithand I
       G
hauled oil out of the badlands
   F
No doubt this land was made for you
   Am
and me


Am                       G
So here we go, feel that spirit in the
wind
  F
We may never make it home and it's
C              G
back to work again
Am
Our families on our minds and these
G
scars on our skin
           F
They don't wash off with the mud, it's
                Am
in our American blood

      G          F
Oh Oh Oh   Oh Oh Oh
                    Am
It's in our American blood

      G          F        G        Am
Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh  Oh Oh Oh
