E
Oh please don't send me out
D
Said the man with the hammer, hammering the anvil
E /G /F# /E
I been walking on a road of rocks
D
And I keep on hammering, keep on hammering, keep on hammering,
/F# E
Hammering the anvil
Don't let the sun go down
Said the man with the fire, firing the furnace
I been buried in the snow
And I keep on firing, keep on firing, keep on firing,
Firing the furnace
Oh don't talk to me
Said the man with the chisel, chiseling the surface
I been sleeping far too long
And I keep on chiseling, keep on chiseling, keep on chiseling,
Chiseling the surface
I don't know what you mean
Said the man with the shovel, shoveling the ashes
I been digging in the frozen ground
And I keep on shoveling, keep on shoveling, keep on shoveling,
Shoveling the ashes
Shoveling the ashes, Chiseling the surface
Firing the furnace, Hammering the anvil
