[INTRO]
[Bm]
[VERSE 1]
He [Bm]wakes with the chickens and the Waco sun
He's got [Em]mouths to feed and [G]cattle to run
[Bm]Same as his daddy and his daddy done
It's [G]all he's ever known
In this [Bm]modern world movin' break-neck fast
He's a [Em]dyin' breed, a [G]thing of the past
[Bm]He'll be damned if he don't hit back
If you [G]stand in his way
When there's [A]nothin' more to say
[CHORUS]
So [G]here's to the lifers
The struggle-and-strifers
[D]Workin' long after the [A]day is done
[G]Here's to the broke-backs
The cowboys in old hats
The [D]last of the Great Gener[A]ation
It seems th[Em]ey still dream
[VERSE 2]
She's a [Bm]renaissance girl with a fire in her soul
She's got a [Em]pocket full of nothin', no[G]body tells her "no"
She [Bm]flew into town twenty years ago
With a [G]guitar and a song
She's been [Bm]playin' them rooms but she ain't got far
Been [Em]livin' off tips in them [G]Broadway bars
She's a [Bm]troubadour queen but time left its mark
The [G]scene's passed her by
In a [A]world that's passed her by
[CHORUS]
So [G]here's to the lifers
The struggle-and-strifers
[D]Workin' long after the [A]day is done
[G]Here's to the broke-backs
The cowboys in old hats
The [D]last of the Great Gener[A]ation
It seems th[Em]ey still dream
[BRIDGE]
No, they [Bm]don't give up and they [G]don't give in
When [D]things don't go their [A]way
Yeah we're [Bm]gettin' knocked down, yeah we're [G]gettin' back up
Live to [D]die another [A]day
[CHORUS]
So [G]here's to the lifers
The struggle-and-strifers
[D]Workin' long after the [A]day is done
[G]Here's to the broke-backs
The cowboys in old hats
The [D]last of the Great Gener[A]ation
It seems th[Em]ey still dream
