Intro: G D G  C   G D G  C   G D G  C   G D G  

                        D            G         C 
From the banks of Bell Isle to the Manhattan Canyon 
 G        D       G            C 
 ?  ?  ?  ?  to work in high steel 
           G        D           G 
All of the roads we all have to roam 
            C            D              G 
Well, let's drink to the ones that made home 


                   D           G              C 
From the corner of Main to the ridge north of Sixty 
        G          D           G           C 
And the wheel of a combine to push in the two 
                   G              D        G 
The back lane, the back road, the places unknown 
            C            D              G 
Well, let's drink to the ones that made home 


Bridge: 
C        G        D              G 
Many are leaving, seek out their stories 
      C            G              D     
Their fortunes and fates are well known 
        C              G               D          G 
There's one thing they crave more than riches and glory 
     A7                                D 
That they find some place that's their own 


         G         D          G            C 
From the Welfare Hotel to the Single Men's Hostel 
     G                     D             G           C 
The bare reds/berets and shelters, the laws on the street 
                     G              D          G 
They don't need your pity and they can't be disowned 
          C            D              G 
So, let's drink to the ones that made home
