Mighty Man

Key: C

Introduction:  C5  

                               F/C   C 
A room on the top floor
                                                 Bb     C 
And the chest all but knackered
                                   Bb   C 
Two fingers not wo-rking
                                                 F/C 
And the back's shot to hell
                                                           Am           C/G 
It's a lifetime of digging trenches
                                           F     C 
In the cold and wet weather
                                                   C 
And for laying half the roadway
       Bb                   C 
In England as well
                                         F/C     C 
You'd finish in the one place
                                                 Bb   C 
It was straight to the next one
                                           Bb   C 
And you never could settle
                                             F 
And you were always alone
                                       Am       C/G 
Just a drifter in limbo
                                   F       C 
I was best off away, son
                                     C 
Just one of the thousands
                       Bb             C 
Who could never go home
                                         Bb     C     Bb6 
That's your mighty man, son
             Gm         C 
Your mighty man
                                                   F       C 
Well, the boat and the train ride
                             Bb  C 
In a misty November
                                                   Bb  C 
We had the worst of the lodgings
                                     F 
And we hated the subs
                                     Am           C/G 
Ma's face on the leaving
                                   F   C 
I will always remember
                                           C 
And we wouldn't get paid
                                   Bb                         C 
Until they had closed up their pubs

                                                   F/C   C 
And I could stand up on horseback
                                           Bb  C 
Was the man for the singing
                                         Bb  C 
Put my hand up for boxing
                                                     F 
At the fairground on the heath
                                       Am           C/G 
I could play my accordion
                                             F  C 
And charm all of the women
                                           C 
And dance round the taproom
                   Bb                 C 
With a chair in my teeth
                                         Bb     C     Bb6 
That's your mighty man, son
             Gm         C 
Your mighty man
                                         Bb     C     Bb6 
That's your mighty man, son
             Gm         C 
Your mighty man
