"Congratulations Joe" by Chuck Ragan Album: Los Feliz The whole song is pretty easy, in the end the slower rhythm gets a little tricky when play and try to sing along. Wonderful song, hope you enjoy my first tab. This one here is in the right key how Chuck plays it on the record and also live on stage. Intro: E (whole time until he starts singing, listen to the strumming, he lifts up his middle finger while he's strumming and hammers it down). Verse 1: E Woke up one day and made his way down B to the water front as he did all the days A in his 44 years E as longs as the ships made it in E stands for a cause stands for a union B for another day is gone a dying breed of workers A who lived to carry on E who died for the age that we're in Chorus: C#m (Des minor) in a cloudy haze E the fog drifted in A and men wore his colors B who chose to begin C#m (Des minor) as a younger man E working through his days A to carry home the food B to carry home the pay Verse 2: Woke up one day and made his way down to the water front as he did all the days in his 44 years as long the ships made it in the best day was the one milestone in a marathone on that oakland waterfront well deserved reward for a hard working one served and now deserves whats to come Chorus: in a cloudy haze the fog drifted in and men wore his colors who chose to begin as a older man working through every day to carry home the food to carry home the pay End: (slower) A B we all have a cause E worth waging war C#m (Des minor) worth making peace to keep A B we all have a love E whatever that is C#m (Des minor) or whom is thee to seek A B there comes a day E if were lucky enough C#m (Des minor) and the cards fall our way, i pray A B to sit with the birds E and take the boots off A B to sit with the birds E and take the boots off
