Workin For The Music Man

G

G                      C         
About five years ago I didn't 
    G
have a cent
   C             G          D    
So looking for a job to the music
       G
 man I went
    G                      C      
The manager he said, "This band is
        G
 got to roll
    C                G      D    
So climb aboard with me and hand 
          G
over your soul"

[Chorus]
            G
And so it's pick and pickin' hard
   C                 G      C    
As long as you can't stand 
          G
pickin' all the day
        D       C     G
Workin' for the music man

[Verse]
    G                      C      
The band began to roll and I lit 
    G
up a smoke
      C           G                
I was thinkin' to myself that this 
D              C
job was just a joke
    G                       C  
But then I heard a yell, "Put on 
                 G
your boots, my son

     C             G         D   
Get off that dirty flood and make
             G
 that guitar hum"

[Chorus]

            G
And so it's pick and pickin' hard
    C                G     C     
As long as you can't stand 
          G
pickin' all the day
        D       C     G
Workin' for the music man

[Verse]

   G                      C       
So everywhere we went and tired as
         G
 I could be
  C               G              
I soon made up my mind that this 
D                C
life was not for me
    G                             
But then I heard a shout, "You're 
C             G
hired for the run
   C              G       D      
So get back up in here or make 
          G
that guitar hum"

[Chorus]

            G
And so it's pick and pickin' hard
   C                 G     C     
As long as you can't stand 
          G
pickin' all the day
        D       C     G
Workin' for the music man

[Verse]

    G                      C      
Now listen to my song, you men who
            G
 played for fun
     C             G            D
Keep clear a music man, they'll 
              C
take you for a run
    G                         
The pickin' life is tough, you 
 C              G
better stop it quick
      C                   G       
It'll leave you where you started,
        D             G
 you're better off to quit

[Chorus]
             G
Or else it's pick and pickin' hard
   C                 G     C     
As long as you can't stand 
          G
pickin' all the day
        D       C     G
Workin' for the music man
