Blue Collar Man Long Nights Chords

(ver. 1)
Styx
[Verse 1]
Bm                       Em
Give me a job, give me security
A                         Bm
  Give me a chance to survive
                                 Em
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line
A                      F#
  My God, I'm hardly alive
 
 
[Verse 2]
Bm                        Em
My mother and father, my wife and my friends
A                        Bm
You see them laugh in my face
                           Em
But I've got the power and I've got the will
A                   F#
  I'm not a charity case
 
 
[Chorus]
                Bm   G       A          Bm
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
  G        A          Bm
Keepin' my eye to the keyhole
            Bm  G          A           Bm
If it takes all that to be just what I am
       G            A           Bm
Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man
 
 
[Verse 3]
Bm                    Em
Make me an offer that I can't refuse
A                       Bm
  Make me a respectable man
                                Em
This is my last time in the unemployment line
A               F#
  So like it or not, I'll take those
 
 
[Chorus]
Bm   G       A          Bm
Long nights, impossible odds
  G        A          Bm
Keepin' my back to the wall
            Bm  G          A           Bm
If it takes all night to be just what I am
      G            A           Bm
Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man
 
 
[Bridge]
                    A
Keepin' my mind on a better life
      G                       Bm
Where happiness is only a heartbeat away
                        A
Paradise can it be all I heard it was
G                                     F#
I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there
 
 
[Instrumental]
Bm    Em    A    Bm
Bm    Em    A    F#
Bm    Em    A    Bm
Em    A     F#
 
 
[Chorus]
F#                 Bm   G       A          Bm
   I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
  G        A          Bm
Keepin' my eye to the keyhole
            Bm  G          A           Bm
If it takes all night to be just what I am
   G          A
I'm gonna be a blue collar
 G        A
Gotta be a blue collar
 G        A            Bm
Gonna be a blue collar man
