4am, lord don't it come way too soon.  Ya think by now it'd be somethin' you'd be used to.  So 
put on the
   G   C             G                                                            D         
coffee, turn on the news.  It's gonna be hot as hell, but at least the skies are blue.  
            C
You're clockin' in,
                 D                   G

I know you're tired, I know you're hurtin'.  I know you're broke down to the bone.  But your 
  C
bills are paid
               G              D                     C               Em               C     
and there's smilin' faces, waitin' on you at home.  It ain't always easy.  It ain't ever

Now you're goin' home, while the sun's goin' down.  You're still miles away, but you can already
 hear the
  D                     G        C                          G
sound....of a little voice, sayin' 'daddy come out and play'.  So ya steal a couple more minutes
 from a damn
      D                    C                       D                   G
good day.  You're clockin' in, wore out, wouldn't want it any other way.

[Chorus]
                 C                      G                           D            G           
I know you're tired, I know you're hurtin'.  I know you're broke down to the bone.  But your 
  C
bills are paid

It's the sweat, and blood and bruises...calloused hands, hard as can be.  There's bread on 
      G
the table, and
  D                     N.C.
presents under the tree.

[Chorus]
                 C                      G                           D            G           
I know you're tired, I know you're hurtin'.  I know you're broke down to the bone.  But your

and there's smilin' faces, waitin' on you at home.  It ain't always easy.  It ain't ever

but man, ain't it workin', workin' man.

C               Em               C             G      G/F#    Em            D                G
It ain't always easy.  It ain't ever like ya planned, ah but man, ain't it workin', workin' man.
