Analog Hero

G  C  G  C  G

[Verse 1]
He used to putter around in his barn
     C
 all day
  G                                
A tool for each job and each tool 
      C
in its place
G                              
Whistling along to a song on the 
      C
radio
         Am                    C  
While he poked through a Mason jar
                  D
 full of nuts and bolts


[Verse 2]
    G                              
Lawnmowers and vacuums, windows 
                C
with the glass all cracked
G                            C
TV screens gone blank as cataracts
     G                             
He’d take ‘em all apart when he got
               C
 ‘em up on his bench
       Am        C                
One by one, he’d bring ‘em back to
       D
 life again


[Chorus]
         G               C        
He’s the fix-it man, the fix-it 
   G/B
man
         Am                        
He can’t put it back together, then
 G                    D
 it was never worth a damn
           G                       
Maybe he’s crazy for trying to save
                Am
 what’s already gone

Or just an analog hero in a world 
                   G      C
full of zeroes and ones


[Verse 3]
   G                           
He used to have a wife, but she 
                        C
passed a couple years ago
G                                 
Someone thought he had a daughter 
               C
out in New Mexico
     G                           
Grew up in the Depression, it’s a 
                            C
lesson that he’ll never forget
        Am                      
There’s nothing so broken, ain’t 
 C               D
life left in it yet


[Chorus]
         G               C        
He’s the fix-it man, the fix-it 
   G/B
man
         Am                        
He can’t put it back together, then
 G                    D
 it was never worth a damn
           G                       
Maybe he’s crazy for trying to save
                Am

[Bridge]
         Em                        
Now your phone’s made in China and 
     C              G
your car is made in Japan
      Em                      
Child labour sewing clothes in 
   C              G
Malaysia and Vietnam
         Em                        
Hell, it ain’t even broken and 
  C               G      D
we’re going for the upgrade
         Am                        
Nobody thinks twice ‘bout what 
                   Fm
we’re really throwing away


[Chorus]
         G               C        
He’s the fix-it man, the fix-it 
   G/B
man

He can’t put it back together, then

[Verse 4]
     Em                            
It’s out with the old, in with the 
  C
new

(It’s out with the old, in with the 
new)
Em                              C
Out with the old, in with the new

(Out with the old, in with the new)
Em                            C
Out with the old, in with the new
Em                F            C
Out with the old, in with the new
