G           C2        G           D
Working all day for a mean little man,
       G       C2        G      D
With a clip on tie and a rub on tan.
            Em                 C
He's got me running 'round the office
       D9           G
like a dog around a track,
    Em         C
but when I get home
              D9              G
you're always there to rub my back.


Chorus:


G   C
Hey Julie
D9                 C
look what they are doing to me.
Em                C
Trying to trip me up,
          D9      G
trying to wear me down.
G       C
Julie I swear,
     D9         C
it's so hard to bear it.
        Em            C
And I'd never make it through
   D9       G
without you around.
        Em            C
No I'd never make it through
   D9       G
without you around.


Instrumental: G, C2, G, D - x2


Hours on the phone making pointless calls.
I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all.
Sometimes I catch myself staring into space,
counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face.

(Chorus)

Bridge:

Em                 Bm
How did it come to be
                    C
that you and I must be
                   D9
far away from each other everyday?
Em                  Bm
Why must I spend my time
              C
filling up my mind
                            D9
with facts and figures that never add up anyway?
     C
They never add up anyway.


Instrumental: G, C2, G, D - x4


Working all day for a mean little guy
with a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie.
He's got me running 'round the office
like a gerbil on a wheel
He can tell me what to do,
but he can't tell me what to feel.

(Chorus)
