Chords

Transcribed by Kellie G Key: F# Standard Tuning [Verse]
E
Tumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen

A
Pour myself a cup of ambition

E                                         B
And yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to life

E
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin`

A
Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin`

     E                    B             E
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5
[Chorus]
        A
Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`

       E
Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`

          A
They just use your mind - and they never give you credit

     F#                  B
It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it

A
9 to 5 - for service and devotion

          E
You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion

       A
Want to move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me

  F#                          B              E
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me mmmmmmm
[Verse]
E
They let you dream just to watch `em shatter

       A
You`re just a step on the boss man`s ladder

    E                                B
But you got dreams he`ll never take away

E
In the same boat with a lot of your friends

A
Waitin` for the day your ship`ll come in

        E                          B                   E
And the tide`s gonna turn an` it`s all gonna roll your way
[Repeat Chorus]
