I have done the hard part for the song, you can play it easy, every tab is correct i 
this is how my band plays the song. We have played over 3000 songs together and have never 
a bad tab. I have many other tabs on the site, or soon to come! Check them out!

Intro: D

D
There are people in this country,
         A                            D
Who work hard every day,
G                                                     A
Not for fame or fortune do they strive,
              D
But the fruits of their labor,
        A                                    D
Are worth more than their pay,
              G                     A                  D (Pause)
And it's time a few of them were recognized,

This is for the one who swings the hammer,
G-G                        D
Drivin' home the nails,
              A-A
For the one who's behind the counter,
G-G                   D
Ringin' up the sales,
