Intro: (C)  (C) 
         
Find a (C) dream, put off for the families needs 
(F) He puts in eight down at the (C) factory 
(F) When he gets home his feet are (C) tired 
(F) If he had his way, he'd been a (Am) workin' 
With his (C) hands on (G) wood and (C) wire 
 
        Saginaw (F) spruce, Tennessee (C) maple 
        Sears and Robuck - Black Diamond (G) strings 
        Late at (Am) night (F) he fans that (C) fire 
        When he grabs hold of that (G) wood and (C) wire 
               
(C) Days - years - his dream just disappears 
(F) They never once heard him compl(C)ainin' 
(F) They're every wish is his des(C)ire 
(F) And without them he might have (Am) made it 
With his (C) hands on (G) wood and (C) wire 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
(F) If you ask him he will (C) tell you 
That he (F) don't have no re(G)grets. 
Then he'll (Am) take his (F) calloused (C) fingers, 
And let 'em fly ac(G)ross those fr(C)ets. 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
        Late at (Am) night (F) he fans that (C) fire 
        When he grabs hold of that (G) wood and (C) wire
