VERSE I
F#Tumble (244322@1)outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen
BPour (x2444x@1)myself a cup of ambition
F# (244322@1)                                      C#And (x43121@1)yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to life

F#Jump (244322@1)in the shower and the blood starts pumpin`
BOut (x2444x@1)on the streets the traffic starts jumpin`
     F# (244322@1)                  C# (x43121@1)         F# (244322@1)With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

CHORUS
        BWorkin` (x2444x@1)9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin`
       F#Barely (244322@1)gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin`
          BThey (x2444x@1)just use your mind - and they never give you credit
     Ab (xx1114@1)                C#It`s (x43121@1)enough to drive you crazy if you let it

B9 (x2444x@1)to 5 - for service and devotion
          F#You (244322@1)would think that I would deserve a fair promotion
       BWant (x2444x@1)to move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me
  Ab (xx1114@1)                       C# (x43121@1)           F#I (244322@1)swear sometimes that man is out to get me mmmmmmm

VERSE II
F#They (244322@1)let you dream just to watch `em shatter
       BYou`re (x2444x@1)just a step on the boss man`s ladder
    F# (244322@1)                              C#But (x43121@1)you got dreams he`ll never take away

F#In (244322@1)the same boat with a lot of your friends
BWaitin` (x2444x@1)for the day your ship`ll come in
        F# (244322@1)                        C# (x43121@1)                F#And (244322@1)the tide`s gonna turn an` it`s all gonna roll your way
