Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: D

D            C          G                D
I used to work for the New Jersey Railroad
D            C             G            D
I got laid off 'cause the times weren't good
G            D          Bm        G
My unemployment is sixty-five dollars
C            G           C    Bm     D
Sixty-five dollars don't buy what it should
 
D            C          G                D
I have a-a weakness for 80-proof whiskey
D            C          G                D
Lately, I'm drinking a bottle every day
G           D
Messing my mind up
A          Bm       A     G
Lord, it's wrecking my body
C                       G     C      G          D
But it helps make those long, lonely hours slip away
 
G                  D
I used to be a railroad man
C                     G    D
And I'm damn proud of it, too
G                    D
I did more work in a working day
C            G          D
Than any two men could do
 
G               D        A
Foreman said I drink too much
Bm         A             G
I said that's just half-way true
C                          G
I drink half as much as my daddy did
C            G       D
And twice as much as you
 
D         C         G            D
I used to have me a good looking woman
D                  C
Loved her and kept her
G                 D
And called her my own
 
G           D             Bm      A        G
She started packing when I started drinking
C                     G
Now I'm drunk and I'm busty
C       G         D
And I'm angry all alone
 
G                   D
I used to be a railroad man
C                     G    D
And I'm damn proud of it, too
G                     D
I did more work in a working day
C            G         D
Than any two men could do
 
G              D         A
Foreman said I drink too much
Bm           A           G
And at last I know it's true
C                        G
But I'm too far gone to change now
C             G     D
Ain't nothing I can do
