[Verse 1]
  D
I grew up in the suburbs
  G              
I sing now for my supper
    D                 D/C#
Don't live the life of Riley
       G              A
But it's not that far removed
   D
A stranger to the struggle
    G                          
I've never walked a mile 
        A    G
in your shoes

[Verse 2]
   D
I grew up in the east end
  G
could've joined the union
 D                D/C#
building cars in Dagenham
    G              A
instead I packed my bags
D
landed in America
  G          D
ended up in Canada  
  Bm       A        G
I fly no country's flag

       A             G
pushing boulders up the hill
D              A  
let em have the towers
       G             D
the next blues sky is ours
  A
We're in this fight to win 
        G     
and we will    (and we will)

[Verse 3]
  D
I worked in New Orleans
 G
in 1966
 D              D/C#
cleaning up the damage
      G          A
after the hurricane 
D
Rode the bus across the city
  G         
from Saint Bernard
           A      G
to Pontchartrain

[Verse 4]
D
I been to California
 G
the new one and the old one
 D                      D/C#
you find your people everywhere
      G             A
they open up your mind
D
They might be left of centre
  G          
but they won't be
    G       A   G
left behind
