Dm Dm                        Gm Gm
Give me a job, give me security
C C Dm Dm
Give me a chance to survive
Gm Gm
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line
C C A A
My God, I'm hardly alive

Dm Dm Gm Gm
My mother and father, my wife and my friends
C C Dm Dm
I see them laugh in my face
Gm Gm
But I've got the power, and I've got the will
C C A A
I'm not a charity case

I'll take those

Dm Dm Gm Gm C C Dm Dm
Long nights, impossible odds
Bb Bb C C Dm Dm
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
Dm Dm Gm Gm C C Dm Dm
If it takes all that to be just what I am
Bb Bb C C Dm Dm
Well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man

Dm Dm Gm Gm
Make me an offer that I can't refuse
C C Dm Dm
Make me respectable, man
Gm Gm
This is my last time in the unemployment line
C C A A
So like it or not I'll take those

Dm Dm Gm Gm C C Dm Dm
Long nights, impossible odds
Bb Bb C C Dm Dm
Keeping my back to the wall
Dm Dm Gm Gm C C Dm Dm
If it takes all that to be just what I am
Bb Bb C C Dm Dm
Well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man

C C
Keeping my mind on a better life
Bb Bb Dm Dm
Where happiness is only a heartbeat away
Dm Dm C C
Paradise, can it be all I heard it was
Bb Bb A A
I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there
