Hey hey hey hey, There'll be food on the table tonight
Hey Dhey hey hey, There'll be Bmpay in your pocket tonight
DMy gut is Bmwrenched out and is crunched up and broken
My Dlife that is lived is no Bmmore than a token
Who'll Gsus2strike Athe flint up on the stone and tell me why
If I Dyell out at night, there's a Bmreply of blue silence
The Dscreen is no comfort, I Bmcan't speak my sentence
They Gsus2blew Athe lights at heavens gate and I don't know why
EmG1
And if I work all day in the blue sky mine
EmG1
There'll be food on the table tonight
EmG1
Still I walk up and down on the blue sky mine
EmG1
There'll be pay in my pocket tonight
CG6The Candy Store paupers lie to the share DAholdersBm
They're Dcrossing their fingers Aas they pay the Bmtruth makers
The Dbalance sheet is Abreaking up Bmthe sky
CG6So I'm caught at the junction still waiting for DAmedicineBm
The sweat Don my brow keeps Afeeding the Bmengine
Hope the Dcrumbs in my pocket can Akeep me for Bmanother night
And if the Emblue sky mining company won't Acome to the rescue
If the Emsugar refining company won't Asave me
CG6Whos gonna save Dme?
A Bm
Whos Dgonna Asave Bmme?
Whos Dgonna Asave Bmme?
EmBut if I work all day in the blue sky mine
There'll be food on the table tonight
Embut I still walk up and down on the blue sky mine
There'll be pay on your pocket tonight
Emand some have sailed from a distant shore
and the company takes what the company wants
Emand there's nothing as precious, as a hole in the ground
We got nothing to fear
In the end the rain comes down
In the end the rain comes down
