Boney Fingers

A

[Verse 1]
A
Rain comin' down and the roof won't 
hold 'er
       D
Well I lost my job and I feel a 
little older
E
Car won't run and our love's grown 
colder
                             A
Maybe things'll get a little better,
 in the mornin'
E                            A
Maybe things'll get a little better
    A
The clothes need washin' and the 
fire won't start
D
Kids all cryin' and you're breakin' 
my heart
E
Whole damn place is fallin' apart, 
but
                             A
Maybe things'll get a little better,
 in the mornin'
E                            A
Maybe things'll get a little better

[Chorus]
          E                        
Work your fingers to the bone what 
       D
do you get ... ?
      A          E     A
Boney fingers... boney fingers

A
I've been broke as long as I 
remember
       D
Well I get a little money, I gotta 
run and spend 'er
E
When I try to save it, pretty woman 
come and take it
Sayin' maybe things'll get a little 
A
better, in the mornin'
E                            A
Maybe things'll get a little better.

[Chorus]
          E                        
Work your fingers to the bone what 
       D
do you get ... ?
      A          E     A
Boney fingers... boney fingers

[Verse 3]
A
The grass won't grow and the sun's 
too hot
    D
The whole darn world is goin' to pot
E
Might as well like it 'cause you're 
all that I've got
But, maybe things'll get a little 
A
better, in the mornin'
E                            A
Maybe things'll get a little better

[Chorus]
          E                        
Work your fingers to the bone what 
       D
do you get ... ?
      A          E     A
Boney fingers... boney fingers

Rain comin' down and the roof won't

Well I lost my job and I feel a

E                            A
Maybe things'll get a little better
