[Intro]
Dm G
(Day and night working,
Bb A
Night and day working,
Dm G
All day long working,
Bb A
24/7 three sixty-five working)

[Verse 1]
Dm Bb
Coffee cup, watching the hands of the clock,
Gm A
Holding me locked up, waiting for the sun to rise,
Dm Bb
Red Light caught between day and night,
Gm A
Can someone help me win this fight against the mundane morning blues,
G A
I'm tired of walking in these shoes

[Chorus]
Dm G
Running in a rat race,
Bb A Dm
Always in the right place at the wrong time, working for the man
G
Living for the weekend,
Bb A Dm
Struggling to pretend this is all right, working for the man
G Bb
It's not working out for me,
Bb A
Is it working out for you,
Dm G
Working for the man
Bb A
(24/7 three sixty-five working)

[Verse 2]
Dm
Deadlines,
Bb
Living on borrowed time,
Gm
Not enough hours to dream these dreams of mine,
A
They won't even let me try

Dm Bb
High life, but I ain't livin' at all,
Gm
I find myself trapped behind these four walls,
A
In the mundane morning blues,
G A
I'm tired of walking in these shoes

[Chorus]
Dm G
Running in a rat race,
Bb A Dm
Always in the right place at the wrong time, working for the man
G
Living for the weekend,
Bb A Dm
Struggling to pretend this is all right, working for the man
G Bb
It's not working out for me,
Bb A
Is it working out for you,
Dm C Bb A
Working for the man

[Instrumental]
(each, only one strum)
Bb A Bb A Bb A Bb C Dm

[Chorus]
Dm G
Running in a rat race,
Bb A Dm
Always in the right place at the wrong time, working for the man
G
Living for the weekend,
Bb A Dm
Struggling to pretend this is all right, working for the man
G Bb
It's not working out for me,
Bb A
Is it working out for you,
Dm
Working for the man

Dm G
Running in a rat race,
Bb A Dm
Always in the right place at the wrong time, working for the man
G
Living for the weekend,
Bb A Dm
Struggling to pretend this is all right, working for the man
G Bb
It's not working out for me,
Bb A
Is it working out for you,
Dm
Working for the man

[Outro]
