No Forgotten Man
Solas
[CAPO ON 3RD FRET]
G
From the woods of California to the banks of Ohio
CG
I've always worked each day God sent as best I'm able
G
While both me and the crops they failed, those damn wolves came to my door
CG
I just couldn't put no food upon the table

DC
Time to step up, boy, and be a man.
G
So they stuck you 'neath a helmet and put a shovel in your hand
CG
Sayin' it's time to step up, boy, your family needs ya'
G
And though we struggled hard to save, they say our money turned no good
CG
And that there's not gonna' be enough to feed ya'
DC
And they say it never happened 'cause they can.
CG
So they rob us of our livin', kick us down with shiny shoes
CG
God knows we've paid for our dreamin'
CGEm
And now they're trying to tell us that they'll own us 'till the end
DC
Someone better pray that luck means justice
GG//// G//// G////
'Cause I'll be no forgotten man.
G
So they stuck me 'neath a helmet, put a gun into my hand
CG
Saying time to step up, boy, your country needs ya'.
G
They rounded us like slaughter, they shipped us all to hell
CG
Sayin' what doesn't kill you boy is gonna' free ya'.
DC //// C//// C////
Pretend it didn't happen if you can.
CG
But I did my share of killin' and I took my share of war
CG
God knows I bled for my leader
CGEm
And now you're trying to tell me my enemy's my friend
DC
They'll only pray as long as there is freedom
G
But I'll be no forgotten man.
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
G
These days I wheel the city, where the streets don't know my name
CG
They'll say time to move on boy 'cause no one needs you.
G
In the shot glass there's no mercy, in your bottle only blame
CG
Though you shout the deeds you done no one believes ya'
DC//// C////
Come, man, spare a nickel if you can
CG
Cause all I've got's a story, no kin to call my own
CG
No photographs to pin upon a feelin'
CGEm
But what you're trying to tell me makes the truth too hard to bend
DC
And maybe there's just too much made of freedom
G
Then I'll be no forgotten man.
DC
'Cause one man's chains become another's freedom
G
So I'll be no forgotten man.
DC
'Cause one man's chains becomes another's freedom
