VERSE I F# Tumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen B Pour myself a cup of ambition F#C# And yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to life
F# Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin` B Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin` F#C#F# With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5
CHORUS B Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin` F# Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin` B They just use your mind - and they never give you credit G#C# It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it
B 9 to 5 - for service and devotion F# You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion B Want to move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me G#C#F# I swear sometimes that man is out to get me mmmmmmm
VERSE II F# They let you dream just to watch `em shatter B You`re just a step on the boss man`s ladder F#C# But you got dreams he`ll never take away
F# In the same boat with a lot of your friends B Waitin` for the day your ship`ll come in F#C#F# And the tide`s gonna turn an` it`s all gonna roll your way
REPEAT CHORUS B Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin` F# Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin` B They just use your mind - and you never get the credit G#C# It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it
B 9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you F# There`s a better life - and you think about it don`t you B It`s a rich man`s game - no matter what they call it G#C# And you spend your life putting money in his wallet
B 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin` F# Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin` B They just use you mind - and they never give you credit G#C# It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it
B 9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you F# There`s a better life - and you dream about it don`t you B It's a rich man`s game - no matter what they call it G#C# And you spend your life putting money in his wallet
