Chords by Tony Crowley
Some chord tabs are listed at the foot of the lyrics
[Verse 1]
C Am
Up in the mornin', out on the job
Em F C7 C7sus2 C7
Work like the devil for my pay.
F Fm
But that lucky old sun has nothing to do
C Am Dm7 G7 C
But roll around heaven all day.
(same chords progression)
I fuss with my woman, and I toil for my kids,
Sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray,
While that lucky old sun, got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day.
[Chorus]
Am Em F C
Oh, Lord above, don't you hear me crying
F G Cmaj7
Tears roll down my eyes.
Am Em F C
Send down that cloud with a silver lining,
D7 Fm6 G13
Lift me to paradise.
(same chords progression)
Show me that river, Take me across,
Wash all my troubles away
Like that lucky old sun, give me nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day.
