Intro Am E7 E7 E7

Am                            Dm6       E      E7
They used to tell me I was building a dream
Am                     Dm6
And so I followed the mob.
Am                               Dm6 
When there was earth to plow or guns to bear,
        E                                E7
I was always there, right on the job...

Am                           Dm6         E      E7
They used to tell me I was building a dream
Am                     Dm6
With peace and glory ahead
          Am       Am/C       E    Am             Dm6  E  E7      
Why should I be standing in line, just waiting for bread?

Am                        E7     A7
Once I built a railroad, made it run,
D        G7          C        E7
Made it race against time;
Dm/F           E7          Am        F7
Once I build a railroad -- now it's done.
Dm6             E7      Am
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Am                    E7    A7
Once I built a tower to the sun,
D        G7          C     E7
Brick and rivet and lime;
Dm/F           E7     Am       F7
Once I build a tower now it's done.
Dm6             E7      Am
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

A7
Once, in khaki suits, gee, we looked swell,
                              Gm6   A7
Full of that Yankee Doodle de-dum;
 D7
Half a million boots went sloggin' through Hell 
Am                      F7    E7
I was the kid with the drum.

Am                              E7      A7
Say, don't you remember, they called me Al?
D         G7        C    E7
It was Al all the time.
Dm/F              E7      Am       F7
Say, don't you remember?  I'm your pal.
Dm6             E7         Am
