        [CHORUS]
        G                           C                   Am                       D
        Everybody goes through them hard times... every once in a while the fish let go the line and
     G               C                  Am                         D                        G
        How do you recuperate when it's too late, the month's rent due and they done up the wages
  C     Am                         D
        I keep talkin' stories for ages, so let me tell ya'


[VERSE]
G              C                        Am                               D             G
  Four thirty, crow from the birdie ... Never really thought that I'd be up this early
(G)          C                     Am                    D                          G          
On my way to work, clock in at the clerk, slavin' in the sun, you wanna take off yo shirt, 'cause
C                        Am                          D
Everybody knows, that to live in paradise, you gotta go with the flow, like 
G                             C          Am                        D
Workin' in the morning 'til I hit drama, sweatin' in the sun, hot, just like a sauna
G                    C              Am                            D
Nobody knows it when we, ooh, gotta work hard then pay bills and still short at the end of the week


[CHORUS]


[VERSE]
G                    C                Am                        D
Just like a waste of time, working so hard, only getin' nickels and dimes
G                      C                        Am                 D
Never did I ever see a day like that, where the price is right, it never roll back
   G                      C                     Am                           D
My buddy told me he gotta take it from the whip just so he can take his baby girl to a field trip
G                           C              Am                   D
Never will ever this modern day a-maze me, everybody's got hard times daily
G                    C               Am                  D
All I can do is wait patiently, when happy times come consistently
