Well I work the double shift -- In a bookstore on St. Clair
                            A                         E
While he pushed the burning ingots -- In Dofasco stinking air
                   A                                   D
Where the truth bites and stings -- I remember just what we were
               Asus4
As the noon bell rings for
               E7             A
Blackhawk and the white winged dove

Hold on to your aching heart
                           D
I'll wipe the liquor from your lips
                       A                                   E7
A small town hero never dies -- He fades a bit and then he slips
                   A                               D
Down into the blast furnace -- In the heat of the open hearth
                   Asus4
And at the punch clock he remembers
              E7                A
Blackhawk and the white winged dove

                        D                            A
I remember your leather boots -- Pointing up into the sky
                   E7                                    A
We fell down to our knees -- Over there where the grass grew high
                    D                                 A
Love hunters in the night -- Our faces turned into the wind
                      E                                    A
Blackhawk where are you now -Blackhawk and the white winged dove
    D                                  A
We were Blackhawk and the white winged dove
       E                                 A

Do you still have the ring I gave you
                      D
On the banks of Lake Black Bear
                         A
Where I felt certain that I knew you
                     E
My cool and distant debonair
                   A
Now we drink at Liberty Station
                D
Another cup of muscatel
                    A
Wrapped in the strong arms of the Union
         E7              A
Raisin' kids from raisin' hell

                        D                             A
