Intro 1
(A minor)
Verse 1
Here (A minor) in Northeast Ohio
Back in 1803, James (G major) and Anne Heaton
Found the ore that was
lying in a yellow (A minor) crate
They built a blast furnace
here along the shore
And (G major) they made the cannonballs
That helped the Union win the war
(A minor) Here in Youngstown,
(G major) here in Young (A minor) stown
My sweet Jenny, (C major) I'm sinking down (G major)
Here, in Youngstown (A minor)
Well, my daddy worked at furnaces
Kept him hotter than hell
Come on from (G major) now,
work my way to Scarborough,
a job that'll suit the devil as well (A minor)
Taco night, coke and limestone
fed my children and made my pay
Any smokestacks (G major) reaching
like the arms of God
to a beautiful sky of (A minor) soot and clay
Here in Young (G major) stown
Here in Young (A minor) stown
My sweet Jenny, (C major) I'm sinking down (G major)
Dear darling in Young (A minor) stown
When my daddy (C major) came on
the Ohio (G major) woods
When he came home from
World War II (A minor)
Now the (G major) yard's a scrap and rubble
He said them big boys did
what he could (A minor) n't do
Oh, these (C major) mills,
they build the tank (G major) s and bombs
That torn this country's walls (A minor)
They sent our (G major) sons to Korea and Vietnam
And now we're wondering
what they were (A minor) dying for
Here in Young (G major) stown,
here (C major) (G major) in Young (A minor) stown
My sweet Johnny,
(C major) I'm sinking down (G major)
Here, in Young (A minor) stown
From the Monongahela Valley
To the Mesabi Iron Range
To the coal (G major) mines of the Pelagia
The story's always the same (A minor)
700 tons of metal a day
No sir, you tell me there was change
Once (G major) I made you rich enough
Rich enough to forget my name (A minor)
And Youngstown (G major)
And Youngstown (A minor)
My sweet Jenny,
(C major) I'm sinking down (G major) (A minor)
When I die, (C major) don't want a part of heav (G major) en
I would not do heaven's work well
(A minor) I pray the (G major) devil, comes and takes me
To stand in the fiery
furnaces (A minor) of hell (G major) (A minor)
So (C major) (G major) (A minor)
So (C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major)
(A minor)
(C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor)
(G major) (A minor)
(C major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major)
(A minor) (G major) (A minor)
