[Verso 1]

      D 
Up at 6, 
      Am7 
Every day, 
            C 
Punch the clock, 
         G 
Draw my pay 

              D 
It's a Union job, 
                    Am7 
And they’re hard to get, 
                 C 
But I’d leave today, 
          G 
'Cause I never seemed to fit 

Am                       C 
I love the money, but I hate this town, 
       G 
Every day I’m here, 
      G           G 
Just wears me down 


[Refrão]

 
D Dm     Am           G          D 
 'nother day in this big lonely city, 
         Am             G 
Another month, another year 

D             Am             G               F 
It’s cost me more than this place will ever give me 
           Am 
But here I am, 
       D   Dm 
Still here 


[Verso 1]


             D 
Stopped for gas, 
               Am 
And a loaf of bread, 
              F 
The man just laughed, 
C          G 
Shook his head 

            D 
“Where you from?” 
            Am 
I heard him say. 
                   F 
I said, “Not from here,” 
C         G 
Shut the door and walked away 

Am                  C 
  Don’t fit in, but I won’t change, 
      G 
It’s who I am, 
     G         G 
Sure as my name

[Verso 2]


        D 
Look at me, 
             Am7 
That's who I am, 
         F 
Just no way 
             G 
You'd understand 

                  D 
'Cause where I'm from, 
             Am7 
Folks still speak, 
                 F 
They wave their hands 
         G 
If they see you on the street 

Am              C 
  30 years and nothing to show, 
        G 
Just a pension plan 
       G           G   G 
And a longing for home 


[Pré-Refrão]


Dm        Am           G          D 
  Another day in this big lonely city, 
         Am             G 
Another month, Another year 
 D            Am             G               F 
It's cost me more than this place will ever give me 
           Am 
But here I am,

D        Am           G          D 
 Another day in this big lonely city, 
         Am             G 
Another month, Another year 
Dm          Am           G               F 
  Stole my life and one day it's gonna kill me 
           Am 
But here I am, 
Am     D  D 
Still here
