[Intro]
C
While the years are still on my side,
F
My back is strong, my eyes are wide.
Am G C
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride.
[Verse]
C
Grow up, get a job, and cut that hair.
C
Run off, join the army for all they care,
Am
Or bring a blanket; it gets awfully cold
Am G
When you can't afford the heat and you're sleepin' alone.
C
Love living life from couch to couch;
C
Thought myself content living hand to mouth.
Am
But when everything you own fits in a single bag,
Am G
No matter how light the load, it tends to drag.
[Chorus]

Am
Waking up when I was going to sleep before;
Am G
Bars are closing, I'm already out the door.
C
No semblance of stability
C
On old runner's legs in doubt.
Am
I still even have the ability
Am G F
To run this race without
Fm
My sacrifice... Recognize...

E
I make junk mail for The Man
Am
Soon I'll be inking up your hands

While you toss away my work

Machines whir and I make plans

I've been inking up your hands

While your sacrifice goes unrecognized...
