[Intro]
N.C A Em Every mornin' finds me moanin' N.C A Em Life's a losing gamble to me N.C A Em Cause of all the trouble I see N.C A Em Everybody knows I'm moanin' N.C A Em Every evenin' finds me moanin' N.C A Em I'm alone and I'm crying the blues N.C A Em I'm so tired of paying my dues N.C A Em Everybody knows I'm moanin'
[Verse 1]
Em Breaking out here rocks on the chain gang Em Breaking rocks and serving my time Em Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang Em B7 Lord I've been convicted me of crime Em Hold it steady right there while I hit it Em I reckon that ought to get it Am Em Been working, lord, been working here Em I got a long way to go
[Verse 2]
Em I committed crime lord I needed Em Crime of being hungry and poor Em I left the grocery store man bleeding Em B7 Lordy caught me robbing his store Em Hold it steady right there while I hit it Em I reckon that ought to get it Am Em Been working here, lord, been working here Em I got a long way to go
[Verse 3]
Em I heard the judge say five years labor Em On chain-gang you gonna go Em I heard the judge say five years labor B7 I heard my woman scream "lordy, no!" Em Hold it steady right there while I hit it Em I reckon that ought to get it Am Em Been working here, working, oh lord Am Em I got so terribly far to go
[Verse 4]
Em I gotta go make or break 'cause I'm grievin' Em Gotta break my chains off to run Em And if the boss man stops me from leavin' B7 I tell you, lord I'm gonna get him one Em Hold him steady right there while I hit him Em I reckon that ought to get it Am Em Am Em Been working lord, been working, oh lord Em I got a long way to go
[Outro]
