[Verse 1]
[Am]Pass[Dm]ed do[C]wn from[G] your[Am] fath[Dm]er,
[C]you come by it honest[G]ly[Am][Dm]
Passed [C]out [G]fro[Am]m exhaustion
[Dm]Looking arou[C]nd for some relief[G][Am]

[Verse 2]
[Dm]You put your money on the [C]wrong horse
[G]All[Am] alone and in the middle of nowhere
[Dm]You put your money on the [C]wrong horse
[G]Premonitio[Am]ns start to whisper

[Verse 3]
When you've always been [Dm]a
company [C]man
But [G]who did you [Am]used to be?
You're out here [Dm]fly ing [C]the flag
But lost [G]track of what [Am]it really means
When you've always been
a [Dm]company [C]man
Got the ground [G]coming
out from [Am]underneath
Hey company [Dm]man,
start [C]walking on your [G]own [Am]two feet
[F][Em]

[Verse 4]
I [Dm]get it, I get it, you can [C]eat pretty good
But [G]just 'cause [Am]you can
doesn't mean that you should
I [Dm]get it, I get it, you're
just [C]misunderstood
You said, [G]"gimmie a minute [Am]man,
let me explain"

[Verse 5]
But [Dm]you hitch your w[C]agon
to the wrong horse
[G]You turned [Am]around and asked,
"how did we get here?"
[Dm]You hitch your w[C]agon to the
wrong horse
Premoni[Am]tions start to whisper

[Verse 6]
When you've always been [Dm]a
company [C]man
But [G]who did you [Am]used to be?
You're out here [Dm]fly ing [C]the flag
But lost [G]track of what [Am]it really means
When you've always been
a [Dm]company [C]man
Got the ground [G]coming
out from [Am]underneath
Hey company [Dm]man,
[C]start walking on your [G]own [Am]two feet

[Verse 7]
[Am]Dig it up, dig it up a[Em]ll day
[Dm]Take a toll, take a toll[Am] on the body
Serve it up, serve it up, [Em]no shame
[Dm]That's a pretty good deal [Am]for you

[Verse 8]
[Am]Dig it up, dig it up a[Em]ll day
[Dm]Take a toll, take a toll[Am] on the body
Serve it up, serve it up, [Em]no shame
[Dm]There's a new day comi[Am]ng
for you

[Verse 9]
When you've always [Am]been
a company [C]man
But [G]who did you [Am]used to be?
You're out here [Dm]flying [C]the flag
But lost [G]track of what [Am]it really means

[C]You got the ground com[G]ing
out from [Am]underneath
Hey company [Dm]man,
[C]start walking on your [G]own [Am]two feet

When you've always been
a [Dm]company [C]man
You got the ground [G]coming
out [Am]from underneath
Hey company [Dm]man, start [C]walking on your [G]own [Am]two feet
