Capo on 4
Key of D
VERSE:1
[D]Tumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen
[G]Pour myself a cup of ambition
[D]And yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to[A] life
[D]Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin`
[G]Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin`
With[D] folks like me on the[A] job from 9 [D]to 5
CHORUS:
Workin` [G]9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
Barely [D]gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They just [G]use your mind - and they never give you credit
It`s [E]enough to drive you[A] crazy if you let it
[G]9 to 5 - for service and devotion
You would[D] think that I would deserve a fair promotion
Want to[G] move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me
I [E]swear sometimes that man i[A]s out to get m[D]e mmmmmmm
VERSE:2
[D]They let you dream just to watch `em shatter
You`re [G]just a step on the boss man`s ladder
But [D]you got dreams he`ll never take a[A]way
[D]In the same boat with a lot of your friends
[G]Waitin` for the day your ship`ll come in
And the [D]tide`s gonna turn an` it`s [A]all gonna roll your[D] way
CHORUS:
Workin` [G]9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
Barely [D]gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They just [G]use your mind - and you never get the credit
It`s [E]enough to drive you[A] crazy if you let it
[G]9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you
There`s a [D]better life - and you think about it don`t you
It`s a [G]rich man`s game - no matter what they call it
And you [E]spend your life putting[A] money in his wallet
Bridge:
[G]9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
