[Verse 1]
G
The boss man and the boys
C D G
Down at the job have been lettin' me slide by
Am
And this old hard hat that I'm wearin'
D G
Can't hide the tears falling from my eyes
[Verse 2]
G Am
While I'm hanging steel in Dallas
C D G G
Forty floors above Park Avenue
Am
From up here things look just like toys
D G
And I realize how much I meant to you
[Verse 3]
G Am
Well I might move out to Denver
C D G G
A city that's already one mile high
Am
I lie a lot about leaving
D G
And the boys all know I'm not afraid to climb
[Verse 4]
G Am
So I'll just stay here in Dallas
C D G G
Chained to the place you set me free
Am
Cause loving you is forever
D G
But having you is a thing that just can't be
[Chorus]
C G
Your memory climbs high steel in the sky
A7
These days I just don't care
Am D
If I live or die
[Verse 5]
G
I just threw down a Winston
C D G D G
Watched it fall 'til it was out of sight
Am
Then your memory hit me in the chest
D G
And I wondered how it would feel to fly
