Song Structure:

  A/D                       D             G/D
Now my grandfather was a sailor, he blew in off the water
  D              A/D      G/D              D
My father was a farmer and I his only daughter
  D              A/D               G/D              D
Took up with a no good mill working man from Massachusetts 
 D                   A/D                       G/D           D
Dies from too much whiskey and leaves me these three faces to feed


 D           A/D        G/D          D
Mill-work ain’t easy, Mill-work ain’t hard
 D              A/D                  G/D        D
Mill-work, it ain’t nothing but an awful boring job
   D            A/D            G/D               D
I’m waiting on a day dream to get me through the morning
D              A/D                               G/D              D
And put me in my coffee break where I can have a sandwich and remember

 C(add D)                                      G6/B
Then it’s me and my machine for the rest of the morning
          Gm/Bb
And the rest of the afternoon
     A7sus4
And for the rest of my life


The second verse follows the same pattern as the first with a small bridge before the last chorus.

Bridge:

C(add D)                                  G6/B
So may I work your mills just as long as I am able
Gm/Bb                                    A7sus4
And never meet the man whose name is on the label
