Verse 1:
  A augmentedA       E MajorE
A augmentedA man is like a rusty wheel
A augmentedA      E MajorE
On a rusty cart
  A augmentedA  E/G# F# minorF#m    D MajorD    E MajorE
He sings his song as he rattles along
   D MajorD   E MajorE   A augmentedA
And then he falls apart

Chorus:
   A augmentedA        E MajorE
And we'll sing hallelujah
    A augmentedA       E MajorE
At the turning of the year
    A augmentedA  E/G# F# minorF#m     D MajorD       E MajorE
And we work all day in the old-fashioned way
      D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
'Til the shining star appears

Verse 2:
  A augmentedA       E MajorE
A augmentedA man is like a briar
  A augmentedA          E MajorE
He covers himself with thorns
   A augmentedA  E/G#  F# minorF#m      D MajorD     E MajorE
He laughs like a clown when his fortune's down
     D MajorD     E MajorE     A augmentedA
And his clothes are ragged and torn

Chorus:
   A augmentedA        E MajorE
And we'll sing hallelujah

Verse 3:
  A augmentedA        E MajorE
A augmentedA man is like a three string fiddle
 A augmentedA        E MajorE
Hanging up on the wall
   A augmentedA   E/G#  F# minorF#m   D MajorD      E MajorE
He plays when somebody scrapes on the bow
  D MajorD     E MajorE   A augmentedA
Or he can't play at all

Chorus:
   A augmentedA        E MajorE
And we'll sing hallelujah
    A augmentedA       E MajorE
At the turning of the year
    A augmentedA  E/G# F# minorF#m     D MajorD       E MajorE
And we work all day in the old-fashioned way
      D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
'Til the shining star appears

Verse 4:
  A augmentedA        E MajorE
A augmentedA man is like his father
 A augmentedA          E MajorE
Wishes he never was born
  A augmentedA  E/G#  F# minorF#m       D MajorD     E MajorE
He longs for the time when the clock will chime
     D MajorD   E MajorE   A augmentedA
And he's dead forever more

Chorus:
   A augmentedA        E MajorE
And we'll sing hallelujah
    A augmentedA       E MajorE
At the turning of the year
    A augmentedA  E/G# F# minorF#m     D MajorD       E MajorE
And we work all day in the old-fashioned way
      D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
'Til the shining star appears

Chorus:
   A augmentedA        E MajorE
And we'll sing hallelujah
    A augmentedA       E MajorE
At the turning of the year
    A augmentedA  E/G# F# minorF#m     D MajorD       E MajorE
And we work all day in the old-fashioned way
      D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
'Til the shining star appears
