[Dm]Hey h[F]ey hey he[Dm]y [G]There'll be [Dm]pay in your [Am]pocket tonight
[G]My gut[C] is wrenched out it is crunched [Am]up and broken
My[C] life that is lived is no more[Am] than token
Who'll[F] strike the flint up on the ston[G]e and tell me why[Am]
[Bdim]If I yell [C]out at night there's a re[Am]ply of blue silence
The [C]Screen is no comfort I c[Am]an't speak my sentence
The[F]y blew the lights at heaven's gate[G] and I don't know why[Am]

[C]The candy store pauupers lie to [Am]share holders
They're [C]crossing their fingers they pay[Am] the truth makers
[F]The balance sheet is [G]breaking up the sky[Am]
[Bdim]So I'm caught[C] at junction still wa[Am]iting for medicine
The s[C]weat of my brow keeps on fee[Am]ding the engine
Hope the c[F]rumbs in my pcket can keep [G]me for another nigh[Am]t
Bridge:
[Am]And if the [Bb/E]blue sky mining co[Dm]mpany won't come[G] to my rescue

[Am] Who's gonna save[C] me

[G]There'll be [Dm]pay in your poc[Am]ket tonight[F]
[C]And s[Dm]ome have s[F]ailed from a dis[Dm]tant shor[G]e
