[Walk-up]
G+G

Verse 1:
C majorC
Help me sing
        E MajorE
All you weary strangers raise your voice
                      A minorAm
In this chain gang chorus in our younger days

My brothers, we were naive sailors
G+G
Storms we'd all endure
E MajorE
Oh the road, oh you who sing her praises, are dust and bones
                       A minorAm
The places that she takes us, the choice is ours
                 FF
We wanted much more than our fathers
                 G+G
While our mothers said their prayers
C/BC/B
Now moving on up, to the east side
              E MajorE
We finally got a piece of the pie

Of the pie

Verse 2:
C majorC
Baby doll
           E MajorE
All you women of the travellers, your empty arms
                         A minorAm
Your patient hearts in waiting, bless your heart

And your never ending patience
G+G
I could not go on without you
C majorC
We're all the same
             E MajorE
All blue and bright white collars, we're all the same
                     A minorAm
Our troubles and our sorrows and underneath

Blood and bone and mixture
 G+G
Though we dance to different songs

Bridge: (Not too sure about this part, though they seem to sound good when played as
octave chords)
C/BC/B
And your momma's alright
A minorAm
And your daddy's alright
C/BC/B
They just seem a little bit weird
A minorAm
No surrender,


Outro:
E MajorE
Every man, every woman with a burden raise your hands
                     A minorAm
Raise'em up to the firmament, see those hands

Meet your brothers and your sisters, use your hands
G+G
