'Working Man Blues' by Merle Haggard - Guitar Tutorial

             G  
It's a big job just getting by with nine kids and a wife 
           
I been a working man dang near all my life  
         C                                        G  
I'll be working long as my two hands are fit to use  
      D7  
I'll drink my beer in a tavern  
                            C             G  
Sing a little bit of these working man blues 
 
I keep my nose on the grindstone I work hard every day 
Might get a little tired on the weekend after I draw my pay 
                  C  
But I'll go back working come Monday morning  
                         G  
I'm right back with the crew 
      D7  
I'll drink a little beer that evening  
                            C             G  
Sing a little bit of these working man blues 
 
Sometimes I think about leaving do a little bumming around 
I wanna throw my bills out the window catch a train to another town
               C                                              G  
But I go back working I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes 
      D7  
Yeah drink a little beer in a tavern 
                           C             G  
Cry a little bit of these working man blues 
 
Hey hey the working man the working man like me 
I ain't never been on welfare that's one place I won't be 
               C                                         G  
Cause I'll be working long as my two hands are fit to use 
   D7  
I drink a little beer in a tavern 
                            C             G  
Sing a little bit of these working man blues
