Intro
[E] [A]
Verse 1
[E]
Well it's hard round here to make you a living,
[E]
Company town and everything's bought,
[E]
The metal man, he can offer you deliverance,
[E]
Deliverance gonna be your best shot.
Verse 2
[E]
Metal man keeps more secrets than the preacher,
[E]
Preacher keeps more sinners than the boss,
[E]
Boss man keeps on working you harder,
[E]
Cops just do whatever they want.
Chorus
[E]
There's copper in the hills
[D]
You ain't gotta mine,
[A] [E]
Just a pick up truck in the dead of night,
[D]
Birds of a feather they'll flock and cry,
[A] [G] [E]
But the metal man don't care which way you fly.
Verse 3

Long as you get him a little more.
Verse 4
[E]
So it's facemask, Sawzall, work gloves, and coveralls,
[E]
Bought in cash and a tarp for the truck.

Leave your phone at home and plates half hidden,
[E]
The metal man won't ask where you're getting that
Chorus
[E]
Copper in the hills
[D]
You ain't gotta mine,
[A] [E]
Just a pick up truck in the dead of night,
[D]
Birds of a feather they'll flock and cry,
[A] [E]
But the metal man don't care which way you fly.
[D]
Ain't a thing a rich man came by honest,
[A] [E]
Every dollar turned is another prophet,
[D]
Elijah, Elisha, Jeremiah, John--
[A] [G]
The metal man is just the latest one.
[E]
He's just the latest one
Verse 5
[E]
Faraday, getaway, GPS tracking,
[E]
"I ain't seen nothing, officer,

Why you asking?"

Two to four lights out,
[E]
Careful how you drive out,
[E]
Rock in your shoe and your mouth screwed shut.

[D] [A] [E]
There's a tool for everything you need,
[D] [A]
A sawzall that can get you free.
