CAPO 2

[INTRO]

[E] [A] [E] [A] [E] [C#m] [A] [E] [A] [E]

[VERSE 1]

[E]Bobby works half a mile down
[C#m]In that cold West Virginia ground
[A]Spent half of his days digging black[E] go[A]ld [E]
[E]Becky serves down at the diner
[C#m]And empty glass never gets by her
[A]They say without her that place would [E]fol[A]d [E]
[G#m]They don’t always get the credit they des[A]erve
[E]But every day, they show up willing to w[B]ork

[CHORUS]

[E]This every day, earn your pay, find your way life we’re living i[E]n [A] [E]
[A]It’s up at dawn, coffees on, make it strong, Monday’s back agai[E]n [A] [E]
It’s[G#m] the same ol’ same rout[A]ine, we a[E]ll want the [G#m]same t[A]hing
[A]It’s a hell of a fight, s[B]urviving the American Dr[E]eam[A] [E]

[VERSE 2]

[E]Eddy drinks bourbon on ice
[C#m]Calm his nerves before he talks to his wife
[A]She don’t know they laid him off las[E]t m[A]ont[E]h
[E]Oh and Sara’s got three mouths to feed
[C#m]The first one came when she was 17
[A]They don’t got much but they sure got [B]love

[CHORUS]

[E]This every day, earn your pay, find your way life we’re living i[E]n [A] [E]
[A]It’s up at dawn, coffees on, make it strong, Monday’s b[E]ack[A] ag[E]ain
It’s[G#m] the same ol’ same rout[A]ine, we a[E]ll want the [G#m]same t[A]hing
[A]It’s a hell of a fight, s[B]urviving the American Dre[E]am [A] [E]

[BRIDGE]

[A]We all wear collars some white some blue
[E]One nation under God just searching for the truth
[A]We laugh we cry, we break our backs
[E]We all bleed red like the stripes on the fla[E]g [A] [E]

[CHORUS]

[E]This every day, earn your pay, find your way life we’re living i[E]n [A] [E]
[A]It’s up at dawn, coffees on, make it strong, Monday’s b[E]ack[A] ag[E]ain
It’s[G#m] the same ol’ same rout[A]ine, we a[E]ll want the [G#m]same t[A]hing
[A]It’s a hell of a fight, s[B]urviving the American Dre[E]am [A] [E]
