Standard Tuning

(Percussion or tap your guitar for beginning part)

Working in the corner
Peeking over shoulders
Waiting for my time to come

Working in the corner
One day to the other
Butter for my piece of bun

Am            C
Stepping, I'm stompin'
    D7  F
I'm all gone
Am      C
Give me the tone
    D7      F
And i'm all gone
          Am      C      D7   F
Yeah, i'm walking by the line
    Am        C     D7   F
Not here, but in my mind

    Am         C               D7  F
I'm working, I sweat, but it's all good
    Am          C             D7  F
I'm breaking my back but it's all good
         Am        C      D7   F
'Cause i know i'll get it back
        Am        C          D7   F
Yeah, i know your hands will clap
        Am       C
And I'm working,
          D7      F
Yeah, i'm working
        Am            C        D7   F
To make butter for my piece of bun
