[Verse]
E baritone chordE
Tumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen
A baritone chordA
Pour myself a cup of ambition
E baritone chordE B baritone chordB
And yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to life

E baritone chordE
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin`
A baritone chordA
Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin`
E baritone chordE B baritone chordB E baritone chordE
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5


[Chorus]
A baritone chordA
Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
E baritone chordE
Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
A baritone chordA
They just use your mind - and they never give you credit

It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it

You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion

Want to move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me
F# baritone chordF# B baritone chordB E baritone chordE
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me mmmmmmm


[Verse]

They let you dream just to watch `em shatter
A baritone chordA
You`re just a step on the boss man`s ladder
E baritone chordE B baritone chordB
But you got dreams he`ll never take away

E baritone chordE
In the same boat with a lot of your friends
A baritone chordA
Waitin` for the day your ship`ll come in
E baritone chordE B baritone chordB E baritone chordE
And the tide`s gonna turn an` it`s all gonna roll your way
