[Verse 2]
D
Say John Henry,
        D
Tell me what do you mean,
D
Man came to battle,
       D
With a soul and machines,
   G   D
My my,
D
Take no notice,
       D
Of the good that you’ve done,
D
Gave you nothing,
        D
But the dirt in your lungs,
   G
My my,
   D
My my.

[Pre-Chorus]
A7
Ain’t she tired of tryin’ so hard,
G
Don’t be afraid of the dark.

[Chorus]
G
Ooh, so long,
       G
If the rich man’s saying,
         D               
Who’s to say that they’re
        D  Dsus4  D  D
 wrong,
G
Time moves on,
          G
And there ain’t no doubt,
           G
In what to say,
        A7              D
What to say when you’re gone.
