 C 
Early in the morning 

Going to meet a man 
                 Csus2 
Wants a truck unloading 
     Csus4   C 
For cash-in-hand 

You don?t ask questions 

When there?s nothing in the bank  
                 Csus2 
Got to feed the kids 
             Csus4         C 
And put the diesel in the tank 


Bacon, egg and sausage 

Double chips and beans  
                   G 
Tea and bread and butter 
       F             C 
And a day on the machines 

Christmas is coming 

With the final demand 
              G 
What you got going 
     F       C 
For cash in hand 


F  G        C 
      So it ain?t too pretty

Early in the morning 

Where the trucks all stand 
                           G 
I?ve got a pocket full of folding 
       F             C 
And a pair of jerry cans 

I?ve got to keep it going 

They?re laying off at Ford 
                    G 
I?m only one step ahead 
       F      C 
Of my room and board 


F  G        C 
      So it ain?t too pretty 
F  G   C 
      Corned Beef City
