Emmylou Harris Millworker written by James Taylor
C G F G
My grandfather was a sailor he blew in off the water
C G F G
My father was a farmer and I his only daughter
C G F G
took up with a no-good millworking man from Massachusetts
C G F G C
Who dies from too much whiskey and leaves me these three faces to feed
C G F G
Now Mill-work ain't easy mill-work ain't hard
C G F G
Mill-work it ain't nothing but an awful boring job
C G F G
I'm waiting for a day dream to take me through the morning
C G F G C
And put me in my coffee break where I can have a sandwich and remember
Bb F
And it's me and my machine for the rest of the morning
Fm Gsus
For the rest of the afternoon
G C Eb Bb C
For the rest of my life
C G F G
Now my mind begins to wander to the days back on the farm
C G F G
I can see my father smiling at me swingin' on his arm
G F G
I can hear my grand-dad's stories of the storms out on Lake Erie
C G F G C
Where vessels and cargos and fortunes and sailor's lives were lost
SOLO Eb
C G F G
But it's my life has been wasted, and I have been the fool
C G F G
To let this manufacture use my body for a tool
G F G
I can ride home in the evening staring at my hands
C G F G C
Wearing by my sorrow that a young girl ought to stand a better chance
Bb F
So may I work the mills just as long as I am able
Fm Gsus C
Aand never meet the man whose name is on the label
Bb F
And it's me and my machine for the rest of the morning
Fm Gsus
For the rest of the afternoon
G C
Fnd the rest of my life
