Biografia:
O conjunto indie folk Brown Bird foi inicialmente formado como um veículo para o vocalista principal e compositor David Lamb. Em 2003, tendo vivido brevemente em Seattle, David se mudou para o leste de Portland, Maine, onde ele começou a trabalhar em um punhado de melodias folk que se compararam favoravelmente com o trabalho sobressalente e rude de artistas como Bonnie "Prince" Billy e Iron and Wine. Os amigos de David, Jerusha e Jeremy Robinson

VERSE:
Em
I’ve worked my fingers to the bone
not a pretty little penny have I got to show
I ain’t looking for much
B walkdown
just a little bit of rest by the side of the road
Em
I lift my voice to the forces above
A
the Lords of labor and the Goddess of love
Em B
ain’t I been a good, hard working
INTRO
faithful servant and son
INSTRUMENTAL:
Em F#7add4 G6 Em walkdown x2
CHORUS:
Em F#7add4
then the sky turns black
G6 Em walkdown
and it cracks with a thundering voice
Em F#7add4
work is what you are when you’re breathing in and out
G6 Em walkdown
til your final breath falls to the floor
BRIDGE:
Em A
so swing down that sledgehammer through the wood
Em
a little test of mind over flesh oughtta do you good
get up off the ground
A
you can lay down when the day is done
B walkdown
and on the seventh day
INTRO
you can lay in the morning sun
VERSE:
Em
I want to make my home on a mountain high
just me and my lover and the big old sky
I ain’t asking for much
B walkdown
just a little bit of rest before the day that I die
Em
I lift my voice to the forces above
A
the Lords of labor and the Goddess of love
Em B
ain’t I been a good, hard working
INTRO
faithful servant and son
INSTRUMENTAL:
Em F#7add4 G6 Em walkdown x2
CHORUS:
Em F#7add4
then the sky turns black
G6 Em walkdown
and it cracks with a thundering voice
Em F#7add4
work is what you are when you’re breathing in and out
G6 Em walkdown
til your final breath falls to the floor
BRIDGE:
Em A
so swing down that sledgehammer through the wood
Em
a little test of mind over flesh oughtta do you good
get up off the ground
A
you can lay down when the day is done
B walkdown
and on the seventh day
Em
you can lay in the morning sun
note: at the end they sing the bridge on top of the chorus once. listen to the song if you want to figure out how that goes.
