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

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
