 (basically play C and add your 4th finger one fret above your ring finger,
 you can almost always pull this trick off, no matter the key)
 (had a hard time finding the lyrics,
 figured these out on my own and they might not be correct.)
 Song:
you  left for work each morning before  the sun came up
you  put your forty years in but it wasn't  quite enough
you  put a couple bucks down when  you got a hutch
 and I never  heard you complaining  all that much
 -
It  hits me in the spring  of every year
I  think about you and I wonder  where
Your  life has taken you are you  still here
I  thought your work was done but now  it'd become  clear  to me
...To  me!
...
 -
 Every day you walked back to brand  back with your lunch
 I never said that much but it must  have been enough
 you have some skits and mats(???) and pills and had  to be real tough
 And I never heard you talking 'bout your life  too much
 -
It  hits me in the spring  of every year
I  think about you and I wonder  where
Your  life has taken you are you  still here
I  thought your work was done but now  it'd become  clear  to me
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
...To  me!
...
 -
 Now I've grown up I got a family  on my own
 I go to work each morning and I tip the weight  of stone
 I took those to the stock(?) and I'm feeling  all alone
 I think about the way you worked your fingers  to the bone
 -
It  hits me in the spring  of every year
I  think about you and I wonder  where
Your  life has taken you are you  still here
I  thought your work was done but now  it'd become  clear  to me
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
 Did you always  speak  the truth?
...
 All you meant to say  is that I'd learn  the truth someday
 All you meant to say  is that I'd learn  the truth someday
 All you meant to say  is that I'd learn  the truth someday
 All you meant to say  is that I'd learn  the truth someday
 All you meant to say  is that I'd learn  the truth someday
 All you meant to say  is that I'd learn  the truth someday
...HEY!
 (ending: Play the ending part over and over until you feel like not doing that anymore,
 then do  to ,  to ,  and HEY!)
 First Tab, As I said, the lyrics are a bit off.
 Or maybe a lot off. Feel free to PM me better ones ;)
