Union Painter chords by Dirty River Boys


Dirty River Boys Chords


The intro (and main riff of the whole song) goes a little like this:
(just a guideline, you can use different hammer-ons/pull-offs)

C                            F         G  C
Well I joined me the union a long time ago
C                                F       G  C
And now the paint in my bucket resembles my soul
C                            F          G   C
I don't paint for the union, they paint for me
C                        F       G   C
And a fine union painter I'll always be

On my way to Nevada, well I broke myself down
Here I've been stranded five years in this town
Well I heard of a place, a place I could stay
They said I'd find Jesus, and be on my way

          Am                   F           G    C           
Well they said I'd find Jesus, that's what they raved
      F           C             G          C
But I wound up in prison just before I was saved
      F           C             G          C
Yea I would up in prison just before I was saved

Well I travel the country, but I don't have a home
And I'm surrounded by others, but I'm always alone
And when the paintin' time comes, I jump back on a train
And spend all my green dollars just to poison my veins

Well they said I'd find Jesus, that's what they raved
But I wound up in prison just before I was saved
Yea I would up in prison just before I was saved

I was dead on arrival when I opened my eyes
I'm still searchin' for freedom in these southern skies
I don't paint for the union, they paint for me
      C                  F      G    C
And a fine union painter I'll always be
      F          C       G           C
Yes a fine union painter I'll always be
