Shutttin' Detroit Down chords by John Rich


John Rich Chords

Intro: G - Cadd9 (4x) *John does a hammer-on from G/B to Cadd9 everytime he plays the 

Cadd9 in the intro, and beginning of the verses

Verse 1:
     G            Cadd9               G           Cadd9
My daddy taught me in this country everyone's the same 
      G            Cadd9           G             Cadd9
Work hard for your dollar and you never pass the blame
              C
When it don't go your way
G                   Cadd9            G             Cadd9
Now I see all these big shots whinin' on my evening news 
       G                  Cadd9                G           Cadd9
'Bout how they're losin' billions and how it's up to me and you
           C             G - Cadd9 (2x)
To come running to - the rescue 
       D          Em              C                     D            Em     
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:
              Em                 Cadd9            G
Cause in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down
           Em                 D/F#         Cadd9        D
While the boss man takes his bonus pay and jets out of town
           Em              Cadd9            G       F       C
And DC's bailing out them bankers as the farmers auction ground                            

                     G              F                   C             G
Yeah while they're living it up on Wall Street in that New York City town
             G                    D               Em - D/F# - Cadd9
Here in the real world there're shuttin' Detroit down. 
             G                   D               G - Cadd9 (2x)
Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down


Verse 2 (Same as first):
Well that old man's been workin' in that plant most all of his life 
Now his pension plans been cut in half and he can't afford to die 
And it's a cryin' shame, 'cause he ain't the one to blame 
When I look down and see his calloused hands 
                                  C  - C  - C    - Cadd9 - Cadd9 - Cadd9
Let me tell you friend it gets me fightin' mad 


Chorus 2:
              Em                 Cadd9            G
Cause in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down
           Em                 D/F#         Cadd9        D
While the boss man takes his bonus pay and jets out of town
         Em                Cadd9            G       F      C
And DC's bailing out them bankers as the farmers auction ground
                     G             F                   C             G
Yeah while they're livin it up on Wall Street in that New York City town
             G                    D              G 
Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down.

Yeah while they're livin' it up on Wall Street in that New York City town
             G                  D                Em - D/F# - Cadd9
Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down.
