[D] [Gm]
[Dm]
It [F] started off [C] a [A] routine day [Dm] I got [D] through the morning [B] in the [E] usual way
[Bb] I caught the bus [Eb] on time [Am] Good morning Mr.
Driver, [D] drive
[Bb] As I sat inside my overcoat I [Cm] clutched my cane
[Am] And pressed my nose against the [Dm] foggy window pane
[Gm] The
[C] life I lead would even [E] make a dead [F] man young
[Bbm]
[Dm] Midday comes, [E] I'm ready [A] for lunch [Dm] With my sandwich and a beer I go on [E] a hunch
To [Bb] the park, where I hope to [Bbm] find A [Am] little bit of peace [D] of mind
[Bb] As I sat there on a bench Amidst the rogent race
[Am] I felt a [A] strange sensation [Dm] That without a [C] trace [Gm] I'd fear
[Bb] [C] But then it quickly [E] disappeared [F] again
[Cm] [F] So tell [Bb] me, what's the bloody point [B] Of playing the game
[F] With so much [Am] to lose [Eb] and so little [D] to gain
[Gm] You sell your [C] life [F] away
[Cm] [F] Why can't you [Bb] see you're just a cop Working [G] like a dog
[F] You trade your [Em] future for a dead [D]-end job
[Dm] [G]
[C] [C]
[F] I raised the clock to [Gm] the end of the [A] day [Dm] The paycheck in my pocket makes me feel [E] okay
[Bb] But was it worth the [Eb] grind Just [Am] to [C] keep my head above the clouds
[D] When falling behind [Bb] I stand here in the queue
Behind a pile of cigar [Am] I face the [A] spooky barrel
On [Dm] the clock of [F]
[Bb] underground
And [C] I'm waiting on the beer [E] till Karen [F] comes
[Bbm]
