The Dirt Drifters


Tom: F

F          C      Dm            Bb
F          C      Dm            Bb


 [Verse]
Bb     F             C        Dm               Bb
My old man picked me up every day at half past four
 Bb         F             C             Dm               Bb
I'd hide behind that old school waiting on his flat bed Ford
 Gm                                      Bb
I'd climb up in that cab with someone I didn't want to be


 [Chorus]
 F                        C                        Dm                          Bb
A true blue collared man putin in my time at work years written on my hands a blessing and a curse
 F                        C                            Dm
Every day looking older covered up in grease and dirt whole world upon his shoulder
 Bb                 F             C        Dm              Bb
With my name on my shirt


 [Verse]
 Bb      F              C                    Dm              Bb
Punchin clocks raising kids thats all there is in all these towns
 Bb     F            C              Dm              Bb
Turned 18 turned my back backed my bags and headed out
        Gm                              Bb
Then I did every thing I could to make sure I'd never be


 [Chorus]
 F                        C                        Dm                          Bb
A true blue collared man putin in my time at work years written on my hands a blessing and a curse
 F                        C                            Dm
Every day looking older covered up in grease and dirt whole world upon his shoulder

With my name on my shirt


 [Bridge]
 F             C        Dm              Bb

 Gm                   Bb
You get older and you see things differently
 F
all that matter is working for my family
 Gm
I wonder if he'd be proud
 Bb
If he could see me now


 [Chorus]
 F                        C                        Dm                          Bb
A true blue collared man putin in my time at work years written on my hands a blessing and a curse
 F                        C                            Dm
Every day looking older covered up in grease and dirt whole world upon his shoulder

                     With my name on my shirt    I got my name on my shirt
 F                    C             Dm             Bb
  With my name on my shirt    I got my name on my shirt
