 Sittin' alone in the dark

Nowhere to go

Had me a job 'til the market fell out
Tried hard to borrow but there was no help
     C
Now I've got

           G
Nowhere to go
[Chorus]
C                 D
I need a job for these two hands

With nowhere to go

One last look at my land

 G
Auctioneer with his gavel in hand

    C                      G
And he says, "It's got to go"
[Verse]

Worked this piece all my life
It broke my heart and it took my wife

Now I've got nothing to show

Em                     C
Wandered aimless in the city
With my dirt workin' boots
        D                G
And my old straw hat in hand
[Verse]
 Em                        C
Singing a song by Woody Guthrie
This land is your land
          D
It ain't my land

I'm a workin' man

                 G
With nowhere to go
[Break] G C G [Verse]
G
I was born to the sunrise
Breaking back all day
     C
Now I've got

               G
Something to say
[Verse]
G
I am broke but not broken
And I am not alone
                  C
'Cause there's a lot of folks

                 G
With nowhere to go
[Chorus]

You can't leave a workin' man

            G
Nowhere to go
[Chorus]
C                   D
Are they ever gonna understand

You can't leave a workin' man
