Shutting Detroit Down by John Rich Hey this is my first tab, works for me hope you enjoy it, it is a great song. VERSE 1-Tabbed by Pat S. G My daddy taught me that in this country everyone’s the same 
 You work hard for your dollar and you never pass the blame C When it don’t go your way G Now I see all these big shots cryin’ on my evening news 
 About how they’re losin’ billions and how it’s up to me and you C 
 To come running to the rescue D C
 D Well pardon me if I don’t shed a tear ‘cause they’re selling make believe C And we don’t buy that here 

 Chorus G C G Cause in the real world they're shutting Detroit down G D C G 
While the boss man takes his bonus pay and jets out of town G D C G And DC’s bailing out the bankers as the farmers auction ground G D C G Yeah while they’re living it up on Wall Street in that New York City town G C Em Here in the real world there’re shuttin’ Detroit down. 
 G C G Here in the real world they’re shuttin’ Detroit down.” 

 VERSE 2 G Well that old man’s been workin’ in that plant most all of his life Now his pension plan’s been cut in half and he can’t afford to die 
 C And it’s a crying shame ‘cause he ain’t the one to blame D 
 When I look down and see his caloused hands 
 D C Let me tell you friend it gets me fightin’ mad 

 Chorus 

 VERSE 3 Instrumental solo -
I just play the same chords 
 G D C G Yeah while there’ living it up on Wall Street in that New York City town 
 G C Em Here in the real world there shuttin’ Detroit down 
 G C Em Here in the real world there shuttin’ Detroit down 

 G C Em In the real world they’re shuttin Detroit down C G They’re shuttin’ Detroit down. http://www.johnrich.com/ www.TAB6.com
