Intro
G Homestead Pennsylvania, the D home of the U.S. G Steel
G And the men down at the Homestead Works
Are D sharing one last G meal
C Sauerkraut and kilb G assa, C a dozen beers or G more
C A hundred years of Bm pouring slab,
Theyre Am closing down the D door
And this mill wont run no G more. Em
Theres silence in the valley, theres silence in the streeets
Theres silence every night here upon these cold white sheets
Were my wife stares out the window with a long and lonely stare
She says you kill yourself for 30 years but no one seems to care
You made their C railroads rails and G bridges, you C ran their driving G wheels
And the C towers of the G Empire State are D lined with Homestead G Steel
The C Monongahela G valley no C longer hears the G roar
There is C cottonwood and Bm suemacway Am inside the slab mill D door
And this mill wont run no G more. Em
