Verse 1
(Asus2) Breaking (A minor) up big rock
(Asus2) s on a (A minor) chain (Asus2) gang
Breaking rocks and saving
(A minor) my time (Asus2)
Break (A minor) in' rocks out here
on (Asus2) a chain gang
(E major) Cause I've been convicted of a crime
Hold (A minor) (Asus2) (A minor) it (Asus2) steady (A minor) right
there while I hit it
Well, (Asus2) (A minor) I reckon that ought to get it
(Asus2) I've (A minor) been workin' and workin', (D major)
(F major) but I still got so terrible (D minor) long (A minor) to go. (F major)
(B flat major) Heard the judge say five years hard labor,
on the chain gang you're gonna go.
Heard the judge say five
years hard labor
Heard (F major) my woman scream,
Lord, he knows
Hold (B flat major) it steady right there while I hit it
Great
God
Almighty, that ought to get it
I've been working (G flat major)
(B flat major) Lord knows I'm working (E flat major)
But (B sharp major) I still got (F major) so terrible long (B flat major) to (B flat minor) go
Wanna (D flat major) see my sweet (G flat major) honey baby
(F major) Wanna (E flat minor) break this chain (G flat major) off (D flat major) and (B major) run
Want (B flat major) to (A flat major) lay down somewhere (G flat#) shady (G flat major)
(F major) Lord, it sure is hot in this sun
(B flat major) Hold it steady right there while I get it
I've been working,
Lord knows I'm working, (E flat major)
but (E major) I've (F major) got so terrible long (B flat major) to go. (B flat minor) (B flat major)
But I still (G flat major) got so (F major) terrible long to go.
Oh
(E flat major) (F major) (B flat major)
