[Verse 1]
C F C You grew up in an East Kentucky coal mining town C F C Your teachers realized you were destined to be outward bound Em G Am With your sharp wit and silver tongue the ivy league couldn't turn you down C F C So you headed off one fall to some old New England town
[Chorus]
Bm C G What happens when your elevator goes up more than it comes down Bm C G You been losing pieces of your self ever since you left this town Bm C G You're so far away from your roots we worry you will never be found G Em C G We pray each night that your elevator comes back to the ground
[Verse 2]
C F C Always worried when you left if you'd fall in with the wrong crowd C F C Sons of senators and bankers make up the crowd you found Em G Am Majored in Poly Sci but calling lying a science don't give it a better sound C F C But you dont even see the differnce with the friends you've got around
[Chorus]
Bm C G What happens when your elevator goes up more than it comes down Bm C G You been losing pieces of your self ever since you left this town Bm C G You're so far away from your roots we worry you will never be found G Em C G We pray each night that your elevator comes back to the ground
[Verse 3]
C F C We see you on the cable news and just look away C F C How can a man get rich on government pay Em G Am Making laws and doing the peoples work is what you say C F C We gained a governor but lost a son today
