( E )

The ( A ) sun is coming up I gotta drag my butt out of bed ( E )
My ( A ) phone is ringing boss is screaming "Where the hell you at?" ( E )
I ( B ) grab a cup of coffee
Tell him it won't be too long
But he don't ( A ) know I'm waiting for something better to come along ( E )

(Chorus)
There's gotta be ( A ) something better than 9 to 5
Every day barely gettin' by
( E ) Working, slaving, always aching
Way too young for my back to be breaking
( A ) Waiting on that rainbow
Tell me where's that pot of ( B ) gold? ( E )

( A ) Everyone is laughing from a distance when they see me clocking in ( E )
Well they'll ( A ) all be here in 20 years
Cussing about the same old things ( E )
They ( B ) stay there like a slave and wake up at the break of dawn
They don't ( A ) know I'm waiting for something better to come along ( E )

Chorus

( A - E - A - B )

Chorus

Well I ( A ) take her out on Friday
because my baby likes to paint the town ( E )
The ( A ) way she treats her man makes me think about settling down ( E )
I ( B ) told her that I love her
She said let's just hold on
Man I ( A ) think she's waiting on something better to come along ( E )
Yeah
Here she comes
Ah let's go
