Capo: 2
I noticed no-one has put up this song yet so I went ahead and put it up Enjoy. - Camper Ethan Capo 2nd INTRO: AM C F F
AMTook my first breath where the muddy Brazos Cspills into the gulf of Mexico
where the Fskylines covered my chemical plants that put Fbread on the table of a workin man
well the AMworkin man does his best to provide Csafety and shelter for kids and a wife
Fgiven a little of his soul everyday G (strum once and let ring) makin overtime to keep the wolves away
*after "away" he plays e------------------| D-------------0----| G----------0-------| D-----0------------| A--2---------------| E------------------| AM C F F (instrumental chorus with whistling)
AMWell I was barely thirteen when the company man CTried to dig my daddy's grave
IFt happened on a French owned tanker ship SFpillin' poison into Galveston Bay
AMThe liquid fire filled his lungs and his eyes CSilenced, any moans or cries
CFold and the Grit, the damn stinkin pain F (strum once and let ring) but he fought like hell to keep the wolves away.
*insrtumental chorus same as before For the next few years dad was sick as a dog but he made a recovery just to spite the odds. Settlement came and we moved out of town where the sky isn't heavy with refinery clouds. Yeah he's still alive he's doing good he's in his fifties but the money's runnin out and he's pinchin pennies so I'm going for broke with every song I play, cause now it's my turn to keep the wolves away.
