[Verse 1]

         E                   A                 E              B
It was a strange place and a tender age; I was just a babe in school
         E                     A                 E                  B   
Saw them roll their eyes at me every time that I thought that I was cool
        E               A              E                   B
Well uh God knows I was no chosen one; that just wasn't my prime
          E              A                 E                B
Yeah it's just matter of time, honey, it's just a matter of time


[Chorus]

           A         E           B         E
And I will work this body I will burn this flame
          A       E                 B       E
Oh in the dead of night, and in the pouring rain
            A      E           B        E
Yeah, I'm a work-a-holic and I swear, I swear
      A       E               B         E
Yeah, one day I will beat you fair and square

                Show me what you got
E       A                 E           B
                Work this body on the floor
E       A       E                    B
                Who do you think you are

[Verse 2]

   E                   A                E                 B
It ain't no matter of "if", honey, it's just a matter of “when"
         E                A              E          B 
Ah, some Sunday when it's my face in the newspaper again
        E              A                 E                     B
All the rag magazines, black limousines, they'll be getting in line
          E              A                 E                B
Yeah it's just matter of time, honey, it's just a matter of time


[Chorus]

           A         E           B         E
And I will work this body I will burn this flame
          A       E                 B       E
Oh in the dead of night, and in the pouring rain
            A      E           B        E
Yeah, I'm a work-a-holic and I swear, I swear
      A       E               B         E
Yeah, one day I will beat you fair and square
