Riff (x2)
D5 G
Tumble outta bed and a'stumble to the kitchen Pour myself a cup of ambition
D A
And yawn 'n' stretch 'n' and try to come to life
D5 G
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin' Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin'
D A D
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

G D
Workin' 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by - it's all takin' and no givin'
G Esus4 A
They just use your mind - and they never give you credit It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
G D
9 to 5 - for service and devotion You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion
G Esus4 A
Want to move ahead but the boss won't seem to let me I swear sometimes that man is out to get me

Riff (x1)
D5 G
They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter You're just a step on the boss man's ladder
D A
But you got dreams he'll never take away
D5 G
In the same boat with a lot of your friends Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in
D A D
And the tide's gonna turn, an' it's all gonna roll your way

G D
Workin' 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by - it's all takin' and no givin'
G Esus4 A
They just use your mind - and they never give you credit It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

G D
9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you There's a better life - and you think about it don't you
G Esus4 A
It's a rich man's game - no matter what they call it And you spend your life putting money in his wallet

G D
Workin' 9 to 5..... Barely gettin' by.....
G Esus4 A (end)
They just use your mind..... It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
