Corb Lund Band - Roughest Neck Around Chords

Intro: A


Verse 1:
A
He's got a real long reach in the derrick when he leans

He's been all around the world on the big oil rigs
         D
With the welders and the trucks on the black gold rush
         A
And the diesel burning cat motors growling in the mud
     E
You better hire him on, he's the roughest neck around
           (D)
He got the power in his hand to pull the dragons from the ground

A


Verse 2:
It's 35 below or it's 98 above
He's workin' through it all cause baby this is what he loves
Drives 150 miles makes sure his kids are doing fine
And he sees em when he can but he's married to his iron
You better hire him on, he's the roughest neck around
He got the power in his hand to pull the dragons from the ground

Verse 3:
He's a good hand to have on, and he's throwin' on the tongs
Spinnin' chain and slidin' high side all night long
And he's tripping in his pipe, and he torques it good and tight
And ya gotta figure Eddy's got his mud weight right
You better hire him on, cause he's better than the rest
He got the power in his hands and the dragons in his chest

Verse 4:
Well his mind's a little tired but his back is plenty strong
Got his green kings and filthy frozen cover alls on
And he's drillin' by the inch and he's haulin on the winch
Takin' fuel from the tanks on his short change shift
You better hire him on, he's the roughest neck around
He got the power in his hand to pull the dragons from the ground

A

     E
You better hire him on, cause he's better than the rest
            D
He got the power in his heart and the dragons in his chest

A

A
He brings the power to people, the power to the people
A
Cause he's the roughest neck around
A
He's pullin' dragons from the ground
A
He gets the power to the people, the power to the people
