G Bb C G G F G
You work me so hard that my backs near broke - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
My brow is wet and my throat's a choke - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
You send me here for ten long years - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
I miss my whisky and I miss my beer - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
Ain't seen a gal since I don't know when - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
And the way you treat me, won't see one again - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
You broke my head 'cause I spat on a guard - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
Sure don't make me no better, it just make me hard - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
Your water stinks 'cause it comes from a bog - we're groanin'.
G Bb C G G F G
And that slop you feed us, ain't fit for a dog - we're groanin'.
C D
Well you can tease me and try to break me and still I'll spit at you.
Eb D
You'll never break my spirit, even when my body's black and blue.

Well in my arm there's a dreadful pain - we're groanin'.

I've always liked this song but I've never seen an easy or full
version to play on an acoustic so here's my go at it. For me, it
sings/plays better if you use barre chords for most of the song.
Hope you like this rendition of a truly GREAT song. Matt Taylor
rules. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLkU-FjWx7U
