9 To 5

     D
    Tumble out of bed and I stumble 
to the kitchen,
     G
    pour myself a cup of ambition,
         D                         
    and yawn, and stretch, and try 
            A
to come to life.
     D
    Jump in the shower, and the 
blood starts pumping,
    G
    out on the street, the traffic 
starts jumping,
          D                   A   
    with folks like me on the job 
         D
from 9 to 5.
            G
    Working 9 to 5, what a way to 
make a living,
           D
    barely     getting by, it's all 
taking and no giving.
              G
    They just      use your mind, 
and they never give you credit,
           E                   A
    it's enough to drive you crazy, 
if you let it.

man's ladder,

never take away.
