          Bb                   Am
I used to work and take a salary
     Bb                   Am
In a hole up near a foundry
       Bb                     Am
But it did not take me too long

CHORUS (riff is used in every 
chorus)
To get my boots on a "So Long!"

VERSE 2
         Bb                 Am
I took a day job in Bethlehem
         Bb                    Am
I nearly threw in the towel then
        Bb                   Am
But it did not take me too long
