9 to 5 [D] - Dolly Parton
Intro:
[D] [D]
[Verse 1]
[D] Tumble out of bed and I stumble to the kitchen
[G] Pour myself a cup of ambition
And [D] yawn and stretch and try to come to life [A7].
[D] Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumping
[G] Out on the street the traffic starts jumping
With [D] folks like me on the [A] job from [D] 9 to 5 [D*]
|Chorus:
|[NC] Working [G] 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
|Barely [D] getting by, it’s all taking and no giving
|They just [G] use your mind and they never give you credit
|It’s [E7] enough to drive you [A] crazy if you let it
[G] 9 to 5, for service and devotion
You would [D] think that I would deserve a fair promotion
Want to [G] move ahead but the boss won’t seem to let me
I [E7] swear sometimes, that man is [A] out to get me
[Bass Riff]
[D] [D]
[Verse 2]
They [D] let you dream just to watch them shatter
You’re [G] just a step on the boss man’s ladder
But [D] you’ve got dreams he’ll never take away [A7]
[D] You’re in the same boat with a lot of your friends
[G] Waiting for the day your ship’ll come in
The [D] tides gonna turn and it’s [A] all gonna [D] roll your way [D*]
|Chorus:
|[NC] Working [G] 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
|Barely [D] getting by, it’s all taking and no giving
|They just [G] use your mind and you never get the credit
|It’s [E7] enough to drive you [A] crazy if you let it
[G] 9 to 5, yeah they’ve got you where they want you
There’s a [D] better life, and you think about it don’t you
It’s a [G] rich man’s game, no matter what they call it
And you [E7] spend your life putting [A] money in his pocket
|[Chorus]
|[G] 9 to 5, what a way to make a living
|Barely [D] getting by, it’s all taking and no giving
|They just [G] use your mind and then they never give you credit
|It’s [E7] enough to drive you [A] crazy if you let it

Verse 1:

You can tell the world, You never was my girl

And laugh and joke about me on the phone
Verse 2:
A
You can tell my arms, Go back into the farm
E7
You can tell my feet to hit the floor
Or you can tell my lips, To tell my fingertips
A
They won't be reaching out for you no more
|[Chorus]
| A
|But don't tell my heart, My achy breaky heart
| E7
|I just don't think it'd understand

A
Go tell your aunt Louise, Tell anything you please
E7
Myself already knows I'm not okay
Or you can tell my eye, Watch out for my mind

It might be walkin' out on me today

But the [C] years went by and the rock just died
Suzie [Am] went and left us for some foreign guy
Long [F] nights crying by the record machine
Dreaming [G7] of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
But they'll [C] never kill the thrills we've got
Burning up [Am] to the Crocodile Rock
Learning [F] fast as the weeks went past
We really [G7] thought the [G7] Crocodile [G7] Rock would [G7] last, well
Chorus:

Verse 3:
And in the naked light I [D] saw
Ten thousand people maybe [Em] more
People talking with[C]out spea[G]king

Verse 1:
On a [G] warm summer's evenin' on a [C] train bound for [G] nowhere,
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to [D] sleep.
So [G] we took turns a starin' out the [C] window at the [G] darkness
'til [C] boredom over [G] took us, [D] and he began to [G] speak.
Verse 2:
He said, [G] "Son, I've made a life out of [C] readin' people's [G] faces,
and knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their [D] eyes.
And if [G] you don't mind my sayin', I can [C] see you're out of [G] aces.
For a [C] taste of your [G] whiskey I'll [D] give you some [G] advice."
Verse 3:
So I [G] handed him my bottle and he [C] drank down my last [G] swallow.
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a [D] light.
And the [G] night got deathly quiet, and his [C] face lost all ex[G]pression.
Said, "If you're [C] gonna play the [G] game, boy, ya gotta [D] learn to play it [G] right.

|There'll be [C] time enough for [G] countin' [D] when the dealin's [G] done.
Verse 4:
[G] Ev'ry gambler knows that the [C] secret to surv[G]ivin'
is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to [D] keep.
'Cause [G] ev'ry hand's a winner and [C] ev'ry hand's a [G] loser,
and the [C] best that you can [G] hope for is to [D] die in your [G] sleep."
Verse 5:
And [G] when he'd finished speakin', he [C] turned back towards the [G] window,
crushed out his cigarette and faded off to [D] sleep.
And [G] somewhere in the darkness the [C] gambler, he broke [G] even.
But [C] in his final [G] words I found an [D] ace that I could [G] keep.

I can [A] feel a new expression on my face
I can feel a strange sensation taking [E7] place
I can [D] hear the guitars [E7] playing lovely [A] tunes [F#m]

I close my [A] eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want

I see a [D] summer's night [E7] with a magic [A] moon [F#m]
[D] Every [A] time that [E7] you .... walk in the [A] room
[D] Maybe it's a [E7] dream come true
[D] Standing right along [E7] side of you
[A] Wish I could tell you how [F#m] much I care
But [Bm7] I only have the nerve to [E7] stare
I can [A] feel that something pounding in my brain
Just anytime that someone speaks your [E7] name
[D] Trumpets sound and [E7] I hear thunder [A] boom [F#m]
[Bm7] Every time that [E7] you
[Bm7] Every time that [E7] you
