Here's a simple version of Bob Dylan's "Workingman's Blues #2" from the album "Modern
Play the A as a bar chord in verses (sounds a little cleaner).
VERSE:
A E
There's an evening haze settlin over town
F#m D#m
starlight by the edge of the creek
D A
The buyin power of the Proletariat's gone down
Bm E
money's gettin shallow and week
A E
Well the place I love best is a sweet memory
F#m C#m
it's a new path that we trod
D A
They say low wages are reality
Bm E
if we want to compete abroad
A E
My cruel weapons have been put on the shelf
F#m C#m
come sit down on my knee
D A
You are dearer to me than myself
Bm E
as you yourself can see
A E
Well I'm listening to the steel rails hum
F#m C#m
got both eyes tight shut
D A
Just sittin here tryin to keep the hunger from
Bm E
creepin it's way into my gut
CHORUS:
D A
Meet me at the bottom don't lag behind
Bm E
bring me my boots and shoes
D A
You can hang back or fight your best on the front line
Bm E A
sing a little bit of these workingman's blues
