Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][C][G]
[C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I've seen
mornings when a [C]thousand bales [G]of hay
Looked like a mountain to a [D]boy [G]my age
And I've seen my daddy in that
[C]hot south[G]ern sun

[Verse 2]
Move those mountains one by one
[G]
And I've seen that same man
come [C]home from the [G]mill
Pull forty hours for a [D]hundred- dollar [G]bill
I've watched him struggle and
[C]I've watched him [G]age
Raising a family on a [D]working
[G]man's [D]wage

[Verse 3]
I grew up on a [C]working man's [G]wage
[D]Blood, sweat and tears
on every [C]dollar he made
For the [G]little [D]he earned there was
[C]so much he [G]gave
[Am]And I hope I[G] am wo[C]rthy of a working
[G]man's wage

[Interlude 1]
[Am][G][C][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]I pick this guitar six[C] nights a wee[G]k
Daddy can't believe
they're [D]paying [G]me
It would be so easy to let it
[C]go to my [G]head
But there's just one thing that
[D]I can't forg[G]et[D]

[Verse 5]
I grew up on a [C]working man's [G]wage
[D]Blood, sweat and tears on
every [C]dollar he made
For the [G]little he [D]earned there was
[C]so much [D]he [G]gave
[Am]And I hope I[G] am[C] worthy,
[Am]I hope I a[G]m wort[C]hy
Of a working [G]man's [C]wage[G]
[C][G][C][G][C]

[Verse 6]
[G]
I've seen mornings when a
[C]thousand bales [G]of hay
Looked like a mountain to [D]a boy my [G]age
