INTRO: C G C G C
G Am
Where do all the sailors go
F C
When their ships don't come in
G F
They're all working in a five foot box
Fm C
Filing folders, punching clocks
G Am
What became of What's-Her-Name
F C
She could sing like a bird
G F
Someone said that she was getting out
Fm
Cleaned up her mess and then she headed south, singing
CHORUS:
C E7 Am F
I always thought I would be somebody
C E7 Am F
And I never thought it would come to this
C G F Fm
Now I'm just another working stiff
INSTRUMENTAL: C E7 Am F C G F Fm C G C
G Am
Where did all the daydreams go
F C
I only know that they're gone
G F
Just another of the things I've lost and now I
Fm
Mind my manners when I'm talking to the boss, because
CHORUS:
C E7 Am F
I always thought I would be somebody
C E7 Am F
And I never thought it would come to this
C G F Fm
Now I'm just another working stiff
C G F Fm C
Now I'm just another working stiff
