Verse 1:
F
I been working in this factory
For now, 15 years
Bb
All this time, I watched my woman
F                     C
Drownin' in a pool of tears
         F
And I've seen a lot of good folk die
    Bb                    F
Who had a lot of bills to
    Bb                   F
I'd give the shirt right off of my back
   C                 F   Fsus4F
If I had the guts to say
(tacet)

The foreman, he's a regular dog
The line boss, he's a fool

Lord, he thinks he's cool
F
One of these days, I'm gonna blow my top
         Bb                 F
And that sucker, he's gonna pay

     C                  F   Fsus4F
