F5 Bb5
At the end of the day you're another day older
F5 Bb5
And that's all you can say for the life of the poor
Ab5 Eb5
It's a struggle, it's a war
Ab5 Eb5
And there's nothing that anyone's giving
F5 C5 C#5
One more day standing about, what is it for?
F5
One day less to be living.
F5 Bb5
At the end of the day you're another day colder
F5 Bb5
And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill
Ab5 Eb5
And the righteous hurry past
Ab5 Eb5
They don't hear the little ones crying
F5 C5 C#5
And the winter is coming on fast, ready to kill
F5
One day nearer to dying!
F5 Bb5
At the end of the day there's another day dawning
F5 Bb5
And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise
F5 C5
Like the waves crash on the sand
F5 C5
Like a storm that'll break any second
F#5 C#5
There's a hunger in the land
F#5 C#5
There's a reckoning still to be reckoned and
Ab5 Eb5
There's gonna be hell to pay
C5
At the end of the day!
F5 Bb5
At the end of the day you get nothing for nothing
F5 Bb5
Sitting flat on your butt doesn't buy any bread
Ab5 Eb5
There are children back at home
Ab5 Eb5
And the children have got to be fed
F5 C5
And you're lucky to be in a job
C#5
And in a bed!
F5
And we're counting our blessings!
F5 Bb5
At the end of the day it's another day over
F5 Bb5
With enough in your pocket to last for a week
F5 C5
Pay the landlord, pay the shop
F5 C5
Keep on grafting as long as you're able
F#5 C#5
Keep on grafting till you drop
F#5 C#5
Or it's back to the crumbs off the table
Ab5 Eb5
Well you've got to pay your way
C5 F5 F5
At the end of the day!
