Verse 1
(E minor) Here in Northeast Ohio,
back in 1803,
James (D major) and Dan Heaton
found the ore that was
lining Yellow Creek.
(E minor) They built a blast furnace
here along this shore
And (D major) they made the cannonballs
to help the Union win the war (E minor)
Here in Young (D major) stown,
here in Youngstown (E minor)
My sweet Jenny, (G major) I'm sinking down (D major)
Here, darlin', in Youngstown (E minor)
But my daddy worked the furnaces
Kept them hotter than hell
When I come home (D major) from numb
Work my way to Scarford
Job that suit the devil's will (E minor)
Tackin' like coke and limestone
Fed my children, make my pay
Little smokestacks (D major) reachin'
like the arms of God
Into a beautiful sky of soot (E minor) and clay
Here in Young (D major) stown
Here in Youngstown (E minor)
My sweet (G major) Jenny, I'm sinkin' down (D major)
Here, darlin', in Young (E minor) stown
Well, (D major) my daddy (G major) come on
the old high (D major) works
when he come home from
World War II (E minor)
Now the yard's just scrap and rubble (D major)
Except them big boys did what
Hitler couldn't (E minor) do
These (D major) mills,
(G major) they built the tank (D major) s and bombs
that won this country's wars (E minor)
My sinner son (D major) s took Korea and Vietnam
They were wonderin' what
they were dy (E minor) in' for
Here in Young (D major) stown
Here in Youngstown (E minor)
My sweet (D major) (G major) Jenny, I'm sinkin' down (D major)
Here, darlin', in Young (E minor) stown
The Monongahela Valley
The Mesabi Iron Range
To the coal (D major) mines of Appalachia
The story's always the same (E minor)
Seven hundred tons of metal a day
Now, sir, you tell me this
world's changed
Once (D major) I made you rich enough
Rich enough to forget my name (E minor)
In Young (D major) stown
In Youngstown (E minor)
My sweet (D major) Jenny, (G major) I'm sinkin' down (D major)
Here down in (E minor) a young (D major) 's (E minor) town
When (D major) I died, (G major) want no part of (D major) heaven
I would not do heaven's work (E minor) well
I pray the (D major) devil comes and takes me to
Still the fiery furnaces (E minor) of hell (D major)
