Verse 1:
Gm   F  C     Dm
Passed down from your father,
Gm  F      C   Dm Dm*
you come by it honestly
Gm  F  C    Dm
Passed out from exhaustion
Gm   F       C   Dm Dm*
Looking around for some relief

Pre-Chorus:
 Gm             F
But you, put your money on the wrong horse
C         Dm
All alone and in the middle of nowhere
Gm            F
You put your money on the wrong horse
C          Dm     Dm*
Premonitions start to whisper:


Chorus:
Gm                  F
When you've always been a company man
C          Dm
But who did you used to be?
Gm               F
You're out here flying the flag
C             Dm
But lost track of what it really means
Gm                  F
When you've always been a company man
C               Dm
Got the ground coming out from underneath

Hey company man, start walking on your own two feet!


Verse 2:
Gm         F
I get it, I get it, you can eat pretty good
  C            Dm           Dm*
But just cause you can doesn't mean that you should
Gm          F
I get it, I get it, you're just misunderstood
C                Dm        Dm*
You said, "gimmie a minute man, let me explain"


Pre-Chorus:
Gm               F
But you hitch your wagon to the wrong horse
C               Dm           Dm*
You turned around and asked, "How did we get here?"
Gm             F
You hitch your wagon to the wrong horse
C          Dm     Dm*
Premonitions start to whisper:


Chorus:
Gm                  F
When you've always been a company man
C          Dm
But who did you used to be?
Gm               F
You're out here flying the flag
C             Dm
But lost track of what it really means
Gm                  F
When you've always been a company man
C               Dm
Got the ground coming out from underneath

Hey company man, start walking on your own two feet!
