Automation Song

pre>

G    b7        em   am7   d7		g

Oh i laid down your railroads, every mile of track.

B7	  em  am7     d7	    g

With the muscles on my arm and the sweat upon my back.

G7  c		  g		c	      g

And now the trains are rolling, they roll to every shore

C	       g		     a7 	      d

You tell me that my job is through, there ain't no work no more.

G    b7	em am7	 d7	      g

Though i laid down your highways all across the land.

B7     em    am7	   d7	       g

With the ringing of the steel and the power of my hands.

G7  c       g 		   c		  g

And now the roads are there like ribbons in the sky,

C		 g		    a7		   d

You tell me that my job is through but still i wonder why.



Em			bm

For the wages were low and the hours were long

Em			 d7

And the labour was all i could bear.

Em			 bm

Now you've got new machines for to take my place

Am7		       d7

And you tell me it's not mine to share.

G	b7	  em  am7	d7	       g

Though i laid down your factories and laid down your fields,

B7     em     am7    d7		g

With my feet on the ground and my back to your wheels.

G7  c		      g 	  c		 g

And now the smoke is rising, the steel is all a-glow,

C		g		 d7	       g

I'm walking down a jobless road and where am i to go.



(repeat)



Em	   am	    d7	  g

Tell me, where am i to go. /pre>
