[Intro]
Dm
(Hammering on and off the 2nd fret G string)
[Verse]
Dm F C Dm
Daddy worked like a mule mining Pike County coal
Dm F C Dm
He fucked up his back, he couldn't work anymore
F C G Dm
He said one of these days you'll get out of these hills
F C G Dm
Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills
[Verse]
Dm F C Dm
See the ways of this world will just bring you to tears
Dm F C Dm
Keep the Lord in your heart, you'll have nothing to fear
F C G Dm
Live the best that you can and don't lie and don't steal
F C G Dm
Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills
[Chorus]
F C G
Well daddy I've been trying, I just can't catch a break
F C G Dm
There's too much in this world that I can't seem to shake
F C G Dm
But I remember your words Lord, they bring me to chills
F C G Dm
Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills
[Instrumental]
Dm F C Dm

Dm F C Dm

F C G Dm

F C G Dm

[Verse]
Dm F C Dm
Keep in mind that a man's just as good as his word
Dm F C Dm
It takes twice as long to build bridges you burn
F C G Dm
And there is hurt you can cause time alone cannot heal
F C G Dm
Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills
[Chorus]
F C G
Well daddy I've been trying, I just can't catch a break
F C G Dm
There's too much in this world that I can't seem to shake
F C G Dm
But I remember your words Lord, they bring me to chills
F C G Dm
Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills
[Outro]
F C G Dm
Keep your nose on the grindstone...
