[Intro]
B C#m
B C#m
[Verse]
B
Caught up in your wheelin' dealin'
C#m
you've got no time left for simple feelin'.
E F# B
I thought I knew you but I didn't know you at all.
B
Trapped inside your world of worry
C#m
you miss so much when you always hurry.
E F# B
Well slow down baby, you'll only get hurt if you fall.
[Pre-Chorus]
B C#m
Well you told me one time that you'd be somebody,
D#m
that you weren't workin' just to survive
Em
but you're workin' so hard
C B
that you don't even know you're alive.
[Chorus]
Em C
Workin' so hard to be somebody special,
Em C
not working just to survive.
Dm
Well you're special to me babe, but what I don't see babe,
C B
is where you go once you arrive, where we go once we arrive.
[Verse]
B
Damn all evil that takes possession
C#m
Until your pipe dreams become obsessions
E F# B
They scare me baby, and we should have nothing to fear
B
I'm no child, but I can't help wonder
C#m
It seems like some kind of spell you're under
E F# B
You're listenin' baby, but somehow you don't really hear
[Pre-Chorus]
B C#m
Well you told me one time that you'd be somebody,
D#m
that you weren't workin' just to survive
Em
but you're workin' so hard
C B
that you don't even know you're alive.
[Chorus]
Em C
Workin' so hard to be somebody special,
Em C
not working just to survive.
Dm
Well you're special to me babe, but what I don't see babe,
C B
is where you go once you arrive, where we go once we arrive.
