And hurrrr' we go. Intro: Dm x 4
    Dm
You do your time, tow the line
Wading through the water heading for the wine
           Gm  
Throw your pearls for swine, break your spine
You'll never reach a hundred doing 99
          Dm
You gotta lift your chin to see what comes up ahead

           Gm                        Dm
Before the casket slams shut and the fat lady's dead

         Gm              Am   Dm
But if I do do do all I can

                    Gm
Tomorrow comes a chance

         Gm                Am   Dm
And if I do do do all I don't

        Dm               Gm  
There's no reason it won’t
I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four
   Gm 
So hand it over a couple million or more!

       Dm
Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day
Midnight shifter
       Dm
Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day

Dm
Surprise surprise, I got wise
When you get up in the morning I just close my eyes
   Gm
No dos or dies are worth the price
Cause once you hit the floor they cut you down to size
         Dm
No don't get me wrong we could be one in the same
But there's a difference in the way that we're playin' the game
      Gm
Never let no one be no boss over me

    Dm
You work in chain, but my thinking is free

         Gm              Am   Dm
But if I do do do all I can

                    Gm
Tomorrow comes a chance

         Gm                Am   Dm
And if I do do do all I don't

        Dm               Gm  
There's no reason it won’t
I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four
   Gm 
So hand it over a couple million or more!

          Dm
OOOOOHHHH YEAAAAAH

       Dm
Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day
Midnight shifter
       Gm
Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day
Midnight shifter
         Dm
