Intro: G5 D5 G5

G5              D5             G5
Forty years we labor on this chain 
C5                G5                D5
Workin' much too hard for what we gain 
G5             D5                E5   C5
You and I, we taste the bitter end 
G5             D5                 G5  
Workin' forty years for another man 


G5                   D5             G5
Got no name, just a number in the book 
C5              G5              D5
Friendly faces hide the royal look 
G5               D5                E5    C5
Nothin' down on you, it's such a shame 
G5             D5                 G5
Workin' forty years for another man 


C5     D5           G5          C5
Forty years, forty long long years 
C5        D5                  G5
Give the man your blood and   sweat and tears 


G5                  D5           G5
Cash your check on Friday afternoon 
C5                 G5                D5
Sunday night your money's gone too soon 
G5                 D5              E5    C5
For your children will it be the same? 
G5             D5                 G5
Workin' forty years for another man
