[Verse]
C G/C F/C G/C
I am a man who looks after the pigs
C G/C F/C G/C
Usually I get along okay
C G/C F/C G/C
I am man who reveals all he digs
C G/C F/C G/C
Should be more careful what I say
[Chorus]
C F
I'm getting put down
C F
I'm getting pushed round
Dm C Bb
I'm being beaten every day
C F
My life's fading
C F
But things are changing
Dm C Bb
I'm not gonna sit and weep again
[Verse]
C G/C F/C G/C
I am man who drives a local bus
C G/C F/C G/C
I take miners to work, but the pits all closed today
C G/C F/C G/C
It's easy to see that you are one of us
C G/C F/C G/C
Ain't it funny how we all seem to look the same?
[Chorus]
C F
I'm getting put down
C F
I'm getting pushed round

I'm being beaten every day
C F
My life's fading
C F
But things are changing
Dm C Bb
I'm not gonna sit and weep again
[Middle 8]
F C
My karma tells me
Bb F
You've been screwed again
Gm F
If you let them do it to you
Eb Bb
You've got yourself to blame

It's you who feels the pain

It's you who takes the shame

[Verse]
C G/C F/C G/C
I am a young man, I ain't done very much
C G/C F/C G/C
You men should remember how you used to fight
C G/C F/C G/C
Just like a child, I've been seeing only dreams
C G/C F/C G/C
I'm all mixed up but I know what's right
[Chorus]
C F
I'm being put down (I'm being put down)
C F
I'm getting pushed round (I'm getting pushed round)
Dm C Bb
I'm being beaten every day
C F
My life's fading
C F
Things are changing
Dm C Bb
I'm not gonna sit and weep again
[ C ]
I'm not gonna sit and weep again
