Long As Daddy’s Working

Capo: 3rd fret

INTRO:
C G Am7 F

VERSE:
C
Another run down hotel room
G
Another wake up call
Am7
Been out here too damn long
F
And it’s coming on fall

C
Workin’ and a sleepin’
G
That’s all I do every day
Am7
To hear my friends talk
F
They think I got it made

CHORUS:
C
They ain’t handing out this money
G
I ain’t gotta damn dime for free
Am7
Been giving every thing I got
F
To feed my family

C
Putting food back home on the table
G
There’s an empty spot in my bed
Am7
I could work hard every hour
F
And would never get ahead

G F
But my babies know there’s a one thing that’s for certain
G F
Yeah they ain’t ever gotta worry ‘bout hurtin’
C G Am7 F
Long as daddy’s working

VERSE:
C
Wipe the sweat from my brow
G
When I think I can’t take any more
Am7
But in the back of my mind
F
I remember just who I’m working for

C
The good Lord’s got my family
G
And I know they’re doing fine
Am7
‘Cause He’s got his job covered
F
Now it’s time that I do mine

CHORUS:
C
They ain’t handing out this money
G
I ain’t gotta damn dime for free
Am7
Been giving every thing I got
F
To feed my family

C
Putting food back home on the table
G
There’s an empty spot in my bed
Am7
I could work hard every hour
F
And would never get ahead

G F
But my babies know there’s a one thing that’s for certain
G F
That they ain’t ever gotta worry about hurtin’
C G Am7 F
Long as daddy’s working
