[F#] [D#] .
[F] [F#] .
[E] [F] [F#] Tumble out of bed and I stumble to the [B] kitchen.
Pour myself a cup of [F#] ambition and yawn and stretch and try to [C#] come to life.
[F#] Jump in the shower and the blood starts [B] pumping.
Out on the street the traffic starts [F#] jumping.
Folks like [C#] me on the job [F#] from nine to five.
[B] Working nine to five.
What a way to make a living.
[F#] Barely getting by.
It's all taking and no giving.
[B] They just use your mind.
And they never give you credit.
[G#] It's [A#m] enough [G#m] to [G#] drive [C#] you.
Free [E] and you let it.
[B] Nine to five.
For service and devotion.
You [F#] would think that I.
Would deserve a fair promotion.
Want [B] to move ahead.
But the boss won't seem to let me.
[G#] I [A#m] swear [G#m] sometimes [G#] I [C#] [D#m] hope [Em] to get [C#] me.
[F#] .
They let you dream just to watch them [B] shatter.
You're just a step on the boss man's ladder.
[F#] But you've got dreams he'll never take [C#] away.
[F#] In the same boat with a lot of your [B] friends.
Waiting for the day your ship will come in.
And the [F#] tide's gonna turn [C#] and it's [F#] all gonna roll.
[B] You're working nine to five.
What a way to make a living.
[F#] Barely getting by.
It's all taking and no giving.
[B] They just use your mind.
And you never get the credit.
[G#] It's [A#m] enough [G#m] to [G#] drive you.
[C#] Crazy and you let [B] it.
Nine to five.
If they got you where they want you.
[F#] There's no better life.
[F#m] And you think about it don't you.
[B] It's a mixed-men's game.
No matter what they call it.
[G#] And you [A#m] spend [B] your [G#] life.
[C#] [E] In his [B] wallet.
