G5
Sittin' alone in the dark, wastin' my time in a park 
       C5                G5
'cause I got nowhere to go 

had me a job til the market fell out 

tried hard to borrow but there was no help 
    C5                   G5
now I've got nowhere to go 
 
Chorus 
C5                D5
I need a job for these two hands 
              C5                   G5
I'm a workin' man with nowhere to go 
G5
One last look at the land, auctioneer with his gavel in hand 
    C5                     G5
and he says, "it's got to go" 

worked this piece all my life 

it broke my heart then took my wife 
    C5                   G5
now I've got nothin' to show 

Chorus 
E5                      C5
Wandered aimless in the city 
                                 D5                G5    C5 G5
with my dirt workin' boot and my ol' straw hat in hand  
F#5 E5                   C5
singin' a song by Woody Guthrie 
                                 D5
this land is your land; it ain't my land 
N.C.            C5                   G5
I'm a workin' man with nowhere to go 
G5
I was born to the sunrise, breaking back all day 
    C5                     G5   C5 G5
now I've got something to say  

I am broke but not broken 
                                C5
I am not alone 'cause there's a lot of folks 
                G5
with nowhere to go 
C5                      D5
Are they ever going to understand 
                          C5
you can't leave a workin' man 
                G5
with nowhere to go 
C5                      D5
Are they ever going to understand 
                          C5
you can't leave a workin' man 
                G5
with nowhere to go
