Chords with lyrics

D MajorD      C majorC     G+G        D MajorD
I used to work for the New Jersey Railroad
D MajorD      C majorC       G+G      D MajorD
I got laid off 'cause the times weren't good
G+G      D MajorD     B minorBm    G+G
My unemployment is sixty-five dollars
C majorC      G+G      C majorC  B minorBm   D MajorD
Sixty-five dollars don't buy what it should

D MajorD      C majorC     G+G        D MajorD
I have a-a weakness for 80-proof whiskey
D MajorD      C majorC     G+G        D MajorD
Lately, I'm drinking a bottle every day
G+G      D MajorD
Messing my mind up
A augmentedA     B minorBm    A augmentedA   G+G
Lord, it's wrecking my body
C majorC            G+G   C majorC   G+G     D MajorD
But it helps make those long, lonely hours slip away

G+G         D MajorD
I used to be a railroad man
C majorC           G+G  D MajorD
And I'm damn proud of it, too
G+G          D MajorD
I did more work in a working day
C majorC      G+G     D MajorD
Than any two men could do

G+G        D MajorD    A augmentedA
Foreman said I drink too much
B minorBm     A augmentedA       G+G
I said that's just half-way true
C majorC             G+G
I drink half as much as my daddy did
C majorC      G+G    D MajorD
And twice as much as you

D MajorD     C majorC     G+G      D MajorD
I used to have me a good looking woman
D MajorD         C majorC
Loved her and kept her
G+G         D MajorD
And called her my own

G+G      D MajorD       B minorBm   A augmentedA    G+G
She started packing when I started drinking
C majorC           G+G
Now I'm drunk and I'm busty
C majorC    G+G     D MajorD
And I'm angry all alone

G+G          D MajorD
I used to be a railroad man
C majorC           G+G  D MajorD
And I'm damn proud of it, too
G+G           D MajorD
I did more work in a working day
C majorC      G+G     D MajorD
Than any two men could do

G+G       D MajorD     A augmentedA
Foreman said I drink too much
B minorBm      A augmentedA      G+G
And at last I know it's true
C majorC            G+G
But I'm too far gone to change now
C majorC       G+G   D MajorD
Ain't nothing I can do
