Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I've been working as a temp

At the local factory

I hope they hire me on full time

I've got shoes to buy

And a mouth to feed

I drive a buy here, pay here truck

It ain't new but it is to me

It ain't much but it fires right up

And gets me from A to B

Pre-chorus

What puts the dirt underneath my nails

What keeps the calluses on my hands

Family man

Chorus

They're the world, my world revolves around

My sacred piece of solid ground

The flesh and bone

That gives me strength to stand

They are the fire in my drivin' on

The drive behind my comin' home

The livin', breathin', reason that I am

A family man

There's dirty shirts to wash

Dishes in the sink to do

And there's how many times

Does 17 go into 52

There's bedtime prayers to pray

Sleep tights and I love you's

And then there's a pair of eyes

I get to lose myself into

What keeps me keepin' the faith

What makes me believe I can

Family man

They're the world, my world revolves around

My sacred piece of solid ground

The flesh and bone

That gives me strength to stand

They are the fire in my drivin' on

The drive behind my comin' home

The livin', breathin', reason that I am

A family man

They're the fire in my drivin' on

The drive behind my comin' home

The livi'n, breathin, reason that I am

A family man, a family man
