INTRO: G C G C D G
Em Somewhere a red-eyed waitress C Em Am Glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery boy
C D C Stuffing boxes full of hungry dreams Am Someone's cleaning up the offices Em D Em C One window burning in the dark Am D Somebody's crying, is there any way in hell G To light a comet from a single spark?
Working so hard I can't remember much
C Em Am About the freedom I been working for
Felt like a prisoner 'til I looked in your eyes
C D C And saw a million wide open doors Am Ya tell me, "Put a little money away Em D Em Well, every dog will have his day in time" C Am Well, I been slaving like a dog and I got nothing to show ya D But a collar and a fist full of nickels and dimes
CHORUS:
C Am I want a piece, a piece of the action Em Give me a shot at the real thing C Am I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action D Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings C D G Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Been living just like my old man did
C Em Am And neither one of us could get it right
Punching in when the day begins
C D C And punching out the local boys at night Am There's someone leaning on a peeling porch Em D Em And someone leaving on a silver plane C Am And I finally know the man I'd rather be D Girl, I won't be back to getcha 'til they know my name
CHORUS:
C Am I want a piece, a piece of the action Em Give me a shot at the real thing C Am I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action D Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings C D Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
BRIDGE:
Am C Well, they hand you a paycheck every week Em And steal a piece of your soul every day C Am And I don't need no gold watch in fifty years D Baby, let's be golden today
CHORUS:
C Am I want a piece, a piece of the action Em Give me a shot at the real thing C Am I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action D Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings C Am I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action Em Give me a shot at the real thing C Am I want a piece of the action, I've been breaking my back D Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Lead Break: C Am Bm Em C Am D
CHORUS:
C Am I want a piece, a piece of the action Em Give me a shot at the real thing C Am I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action D Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings C D G Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
