Tonart: B minor
Verse 1
Am
Here in Northeast Ohio,
back in 1803
found the ore that was
Am
lying in Yellow Creek
They built a blast furnace
there along the shore
G
In it they made the cannonballs
Am
that helped the Union win the war
C
My sweet Jenny, I'm sinking down
G
Am
Here, darling, in Youngstown
Well my daddy worked the furnaces
Kept them hotter than hell
worked my way to Scarford
A job that'd suit the devil as well
Am
Tack -a -knight poking limestone
Fed my children, made my pay
like the arms of God
Am
Into a beautiful sky of soot and clay
C
G
My sweet Jenny I'm sinking down
Am
Here, darling, in Youngstown
C
G
Well, my daddy come on the Ohio works
When he come home
G
Now the yard's just scrap and rubble
He said them big boys did
Am
what Hitler couldn't do
C
These mills they built,
That won this country's wars
Am
G
We sent our sons to Korea and Vietnam
Now we're wonderin'
Am
what they were dy in' for
C
G
My sweet Jenny, I'm sinkin' down
Am
Here, darlin', in Youngstown

Am
Oh
G
Am
From the Monongahela Valley
to the Mesabi Iron Range
G
To the coal mines of Appalachia,
Am
the story's always the same
700 tons of metal a day,
now sir you tell me the world's changed
G
Once I made you rich enough,
Am
rich enough to forget my name
G

G
My sweet Jenny, I'm sinking down
Am
Here, darling, in Youngstown
G
C
G
When I die, don't want no part of heaven
I would not do heaven's work well
Am
G
I pray the devil come take me to stand
Am
In the fiery furnaces of hell
C
G
My sweet Jenny I'm sinking down
Am
Here darling in Youngstown

My sweet Jenny I'm sinking down

Here darling in Youngstown
