[Intro]
Em G A Em G A
[Chorus]
Em G A This tryin' to make a livin' isn't supposed to feel like dyin' Em G A Lookin' for my golden ticket, can't find no silver linin' Em G A These days, "9-to-5" feels more like "twenty-five to life", and Em G A Tryin' to make a livin' isn't supposed to feel like dyin
[Verse 1]
Em G A I punch the clock, wanna punch a ticket to New York and punch the boss Em But they don't pay enough for me to cover that cost G So, I punch the Sheetrock instead A Cover my debts, keep the family fed Em G They been promisin' me another dollar or three A But that talk is as cheap as these boots I'm wearin' Em G And that's been wearin' on more than my soul A And all that I know
[Chorus]
Em G A Is tryin' to make a livin' isn't supposed to feel like dyin' Em G A Lookin' for my golden ticket, can't find no silver linin' Em G A These days, "9-to-5" feels more like "twenty-five to life", and Em G A Em G Tryin' to make a livin' isn't supposed to feel like dyin, nah A Em G A Supposed to feel like dyin', no
[Verse 2]
Em G A Red, blue, right, left, they still workin' us to death Em G A And whatever's left over at the end's to the IRS Em G Head above water but I'm kickin' like hell A Ain't nobody lookin' out for me but myself Em G A Ain't no gettin' out from under all of these underpaid checks A And last time I checked
[Chorus]
Em G A Tryin' to make a livin' isn't supposed to feel like dyin' Em G A Lookin' for my golden ticket, can't find no silver linin' Em G A These days, "9-to-5" feels more like "twenty-five to life", and Em G A Em Tryin' to make a livin' isn't supposed to feel like dyin', nah (Hell nah) A Em G Supposed to feel like dyin', nah (Hell no, hell no) A Supposed to feel like dyin', nah (Hell no)
