They're Tearin' The Labor Camps Down

E (022100@1)         A (x02220@1)             E (022100@1)
I came back to California cause my home was here
                  B (x2444x@1)                 ETo (022100@1)look up my old sweetheart just for fun
                     A (x02220@1)          E (022100@1)
Mom and Dad had both passed on in two short years
                   B (x2444x@1)          EWhile (022100@1)my patriotic chores bein' done

I saw changes all around me and some were good
But I hardly recognized my side of town
They tore down the swingin' casing from the cottowood
And that tree was all that marked familar ground.

Chorus:
E (022100@1)                     A (x02220@1)         EOh, (022100@1)they're tearin' the labor camps down
      Ab (xx1114@1)	 C#m (x13321@4)And I feel a little sentimental shame
          A (x02220@1)		      EWhere's (022100@1)a working man gonna live at in this town
                        B (x2444x@1)         EOh, (022100@1)they're tearin' the labor camps down.

The Hilltop family market had been moved somewhere
And the name was changed to fit the newer homes
The things that I remember were no longer there
And the cabin that my daddy built was gone.

Chorus
