🎸 Verse 1:
Cmaj
No one on this side of town
Fmaj7
Knows a good place for a boy to drown
Am                 G
And look at me so strange when I talk
Cmaj                     Fmaj7
I wish I was a tradesman learnin' from some beat down old layman
     Am
On some hillside they ain't named yet
         G
Sleepin' next to mountain fire smoke

🎸 Verse 2:
Cmaj
And everyone lately's scarin' me
      Fmaj7
It's all backdoor deals and therapy
     Am               G
And the only callous I've grown's in my mind
Cmaj                     Fmaj7
I wish I was a tradesman playin' with some tuned up tired string band
      Am                  G
Somewhere out by the badlands way past closin' time


🎸 Chorus:
         Am    G      C     F
So if you wanna trade I'd say it's a hard earned mile
    Am     G       C   F
Wanna sweat like hеll, throw a hammer down
   Am      G      C     F
And know the old feelin' of a five o'clock smilе
   Am   G       C    F  G*
And know I didn't take no easy way out

🎸 Chorus:

         Am    G      C     F
So if you wanna trade I'd say it's a hard earned mile
    Am     G       C   F
Wanna sweat like hеll, throw a hammer down
   Am      G      C     F
And know the old feelin' of a five o'clock smilе
   Am   G       C    F
And know I didn't take no easy way out
