A5   G5     

A5     E5        A5      E5
Hired guns surround my town
A5     E5        A5
Hired feet and bones
A5        E5      A5       E5
Tried to burn us to the ground
    A5       E5        A5
To build a brand new home
C5         G5      A5   E5
All lined up to carry me
    A5               E5
To hell just like before
A5      E5        F5   A5
Winter seems so far away
         E5       A5
Like tragedy and war

Justice waits for nothing, man
Your eyes have turned to stone
I waited as long as I can
And then set out alone
And all those boys from Harlan came
And they don't mess around
The whistle woke me up at dawn
Such an awful sound

I can't stand to read the news
Of Jericho and swine
Touring bands and roofing crews
Is where we spend our time
Lie in the sty the poor man grows
So tired of left and right
Careful not to say too much
Or look straight at the light
