Bb                         Bbsus Bb                    
Well I work the double shift 
                      Eb  Ebsus Eb
In a bookstore on St. Clair
                              Bb   Bbsus Bb
While he pushed the burning ingots
                    F  Fsus F
In Dofasco stinking air
                          Bb    Bbsus Bb
Where the truth bites and stings
                        Eb  Ebsus Eb
I remember just what we were
                 Bb        F                              Bb
As the noon bell rings for Blackhawk and the white winged dove
Bb                            Bbsus Bb
Hold on to your aching heart
                               Eb   Ebsus Eb
I'll wipe the liquor from your lips
                        Bb  Bbsusu Bb
A small town hero never dies
                           F    Fsus F
He fades a bit and then he slips
              Bb                 Bbsus Bb 
Down into the blast furnance
                        Eb    Ebsus Eb
In the heat of the open hearth
                          Bb
And at the punch clock he remembers 
F                              Bb
Blackhawk and the white winged dove
                        Eb  Ebsus Eb
I remember your leather boots
                     Bb                      F  Fsus F
Pointing up into the sky we fell down to our knees
                                Bb  Bbsus Bb
Over there where the grass grew high
Bb                  Eb  Ebsus Eb
Love hunters in the night
                           Bb  Bbsusu Bb
Our faces turned into the wind
                        F  Fsus F
Blackhawk where are you now
                               Bb
Blackhawk and the white winged dove
        Eb                             Bb
We were Blackhawk and the white winged dove
        F                              Bb
We were Blackhawk and the white winged dove

Bb                                       Bbsus Bb
Do you still have the ring I gave you
                     Eb    Ebsus Eb
On the banks of Lake Bear
                            Bb     Bbsus Bb
Where I felt certain that I knew you
                       F   Fsus F
My cool and distant debonair
                        Bb   Bbsus Bb
Now we drink at Liberty Station
                   Eb  Ebsus Eb
Another cup of muscatel
                                  Bb  Bbsus Bb
Wrapped in the strong arms of the Union 
F                         Bb   Bbsus Bb
Raisin' kids from raisin' hell
                        Eb  Ebsus Eb
I remember your leather boots
                     Bb                      F  Fsus F
Pointing up into the sky we fell down to our knees
                                Bb  Bbsus Bb
Over there where the grass grew high
Bb                  Eb  Ebsus Eb
Love hunters in the night
                           Bb  Bbsus Bb
Our faces turned into the wind
                        F  Fsus F
Blackhawk where are you now
                               Bb
Blackhawk and the white winged dove
        Eb                             Bb
We were Blackhawk and the white winged dove
        F                              Bb
We were Blackhawk and the white winged dove
        Eb                             Bb
