Tuning: Standard, CAPO 1
INTRO: E
He was solemn as a [E]preacher
Steady as a rock
For thirty years my [A]father
Punched a blue collar [E]clock
When I got my diploma
I kinda let it go to my [A]head
He pointed to his [E]tool box
[B7]And the he softly [E]said
CHORUS
It was a man with a [E]hammer
Invented the [A]wheel
Built the house you [E]live in
And my automo[B7]bile
He can fix what you [E]break
He can make what you [A]need
[A]Son a [A]man with a [E]hammer
Is a [B7]mighty fine [A]thing to [E]be
With the muscle in is [E]arm, boy
And the sweat of his brow
He learned how to [A]fly
And then he showed us [E]how
So no matter where you go
Or how smart you [A]get
It's a fact of [E]life, son
[B7]You best never ever [E]forget
CHORUS
SOLO: E, A, B7
He can fix what you [E]break
He can make what you [A]need
[A]Son a [A]man with a [E]hammer
Is a [B7]mighty fine [A]thing to [E]be
[A]Oh a [A]man with a [E]hammer
Is a [B7]mighty fine [A]thing in[E]deed
OUTRO (Improv vocals in E):
[E]It takes a man with a hammer
It takes a man with heart
Puttin' back together
Whatever falls apart
'Cause it ain't no crime to work for a livin'
Ain't no crime in a good, good job
Ain't no crime at all, yeah
