Verse:
Dm F Dm G Dm Am F CHey hey hey hey There'll be food on the table tonight
Dm F Dm G Dm AmHey hey hey hey There'll be pay in your pocket tonight
My gut is wrenched out it is crunched up and broken
C AmMy life that is lived is no more than token
F G AmWho'll strike the flint up on the stone and tell me why
If I yell out at night there's a reply of blue silence
C AmThe Screen is no comfort I can't speak my sentence
F G AmThey blew the lights at heaven's gate and I don't know why
ChorusAm Dm F Dm G
But if I work all day on the blue sky mine
G Dm Am F CThere'll be food on the table to night
Still I walk up and down on the blue sky mine
G Dm Am F GThere'lll be pay in your pocket tonight
Verse:
The candy store pauupers lie to share holders
C AmThey're crossing their fingers they pay the truth makers
F G AmThe balance sheet is breaking up the sky
So I'm caught at junction still waiting for medicine
C AmThe sweat of my brow keeps on feeding the engine
F G AmHope the crumbs in my pcket can keep me for another night
Bridge:
Am Bb/E Dm GAnd if the blue sky mining company won't come to my rescue
G Bb/E Dm GIf the sugar refinning company won't save me
Who's gonna save me
Am CWho's gonna save me
Am CWho's gonna save me
ChorusC Dm F Dm G
But if I work all day on the blue sky mine
G Dm Am FThere'll be food on the table to night
And is I walk up and down on the blue sky mine
G Dm Am FThere'll be pay in your pocket tonight
C Dm F Dm GAnd some have sailed from a distant shore
And the company takes what the company wants
Dm F Dm G Dm Am F GAnd nothing as precious as the hole in the ground
