Key: F# Standard Tuning, no capo
For the Capophobics :)
VERSE I
F#Tumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen
BPour myself a cup of ambition
F#And yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to C#life
F#Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin`
BOut on the streets the traffic starts jumpin`
With F#folks like me on the jC#ob from 9 to F#5
CHORUS
Workin` B9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
Barely F#gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They just Buse your mind - and they never give you credit
It`s G#enough to drive you C#crazy if you let it
B9 to 5 - for service and devotion
You would F#think that I would deserve a fair promotion
Want toB move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me
I G#swear sometimes that man isC# out to get me F#mmmmmmm
VERSE II
F#They let you dream just to watch `em shatter
You`re Bjust a step on the boss man`s ladder
But F#you got dreams he`ll never take awC#ay
F#In the same boat with a lot of your friends
BWaitin` for the day your ship`ll come in
And the F#tide`s gonna turn an` it`s aC#ll gonna roll your wF#ay
REPEAT CHORUS
Workin` B9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
BarelyF# gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They justB use your mind - and you never get the credit
It`s G#enough to drive you C#crazy if you let it
B9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you
There`s aF# better life - and you think about it don`t you
It`s aB rich man`s game - no matter what they call it
And you G#spend your life putting C#money in his wallet
B9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
Barely F#gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
They justB use you mind - and they never give you credit
It`s G#enough to drive you C#crazy if you let it
B9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you
There`s aF# better life - and you dream about it don`t you
It's aB rich man`s game - no matter what they call it
And you G#spend your life putting C#money in his wallet
