E Bm A

My name is Jackson, I was named after my father

E D E

Followed in his footsteps, down here to this factory

E Bm A

I ain't complainin', wouldn't waste my breath to bother

E D E

This work ain't hard, it's only borin' as can be

E Bm A

Married Rebecca back in seventy-seven

E D E

I still love her and I guess she loves me too

E Bm A

We go to church on Sundays 'cause we want to go to heaven

E D E

Me and my family, ain't that how you're supposed to do

Chorus 1:

F#m E

But I'm tired, Lord I'm tired

Bm A E

Life is wearin' me smooth down to the bone

Bm A E

With no rest for the weary, ya just move on

F#m E

Tired, Lord I'm tired

I've only missed six days in nigh on twenty years o' work

The money went to taxes and these bills I've paid on time

The raise I got two months ago don't meet the cost o' living

Selling my body for these nickels and these dimes

The smell of Becky's coffee rolled me out of bed this morning

I showered and shaved and dressed and pulled my work boots on

Walked in the kitchen, she was starin' out the window

And the way she said good morning made me ask is something wrong

Chorus 2:

She said I'm tired, I woke up tired

Life is wearin' me smooth down to the bone

With no rest for the weary, ya just move on

And I guess you just keep goin' till your gone

Tired, Lord I'm tired

Tired, Lord I'm tired
