Gray morning light splits through the shade
G Cadd9
Another day older, closer to the grave
G Cadd9
Closer to the grave and come the dawn
G D G
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
G
Shackled and drawn
G
Shackled and drawn
G Cadd9
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
G Cadd9
I’m trudging through the dark in a world gone wrong
G D G
I woke this morning shackled and drawn
G G G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D G
G
I always love the feel of sweat on my shirt
G Cadd9
Stand back son and let a man work
G Cadd9
Let a man work, is that so wrong
G D G
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
G
Shackled and drawn
G
Shackled and drawn
G Cadd9
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
G Cadd9
What’s a poor boy to do in a world gone wrong
G D G
I woke this morning shackled and drawn
G G G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D G
G
Freedom, son’s, a dirty shirt
G Cadd9
Sun on my a face and my shovel in the dirt
G Cadd9
A shovel in the dirt keeps the devil gone
G D G
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
G
Shackled and drawn
G
Shackled and drawn
G Cadd9
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
G Cadd9
What’s a poor boy to do but keep singing this song

G
Gambling man rolls the dice, workingman pays the bill
G Cadd9
It’s still fat and easy up on banker’s hill
G Cadd9
Up on banker’s hill, the party’s going strong
Down here below we’re shackled and drawn.
G
Shackled and drawn
G
Shackled and drawn
G Cadd9
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
G Cadd9
Trudging through the dark in a world gone wrong
G D G
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn

Pick up the rock son, carry it on
