Verse: Gb Tumble outta bed and a`stumble to the kitchen B Pour myself a cup of ambition Gb Db And yawn n` stretch n` and try to come to life Gb Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin` B Out on the streets the traffic starts jumpin` Gb Db Gb With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 Chorus: B Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin` Gb Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin` B They just use your mind - and they never give you credit Ab Db It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it B 9 to 5 - for service and devotion Gb You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion B Want to move ahead but the boss won`t seem to let me Ab Db Gb I swear sometimes that man is out to get me mmmmmmm Verse: Gb They let you dream just to watch `em shatter B You`re just a step on the boss man`s ladder Gb Db But you got dreams he`ll never take away Gb In the same boat with a lot of your friends B Waitin` for the day your ship`ll come in Gb Db Gb And the tide`s gonna turn an` it`s all gonna roll your way Chorus: B Workin` 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin` Gb Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin` B They just use your mind - and you never get the credit Ab Db It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it B 9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you Gb There`s a better life - and you think about it don`t you B It`s a rich man`s game - no matter what they call it Ab Db And you spend your life putting money in his wallet B 9 to 5 - what a way to make a livin` Gb Barely gettin` by - it`s all takin` and no givin` B They just use you mind - and they never give you credit Ab Db It`s enough to drive you crazy if you let it B 9 to 5, yeah - they got you where they want you Gb There`s a better life - and you dream about it don`t you B It's a rich man`s game - no matter what they call it Ab Db And you spend your life putting money in his wallet
if anyone is wondering the tabs for the guitar solo is
A 7-6-4slide2-2-2h4-2-2-2
E ——————————-5-4
i can continue but idk how to write tabs so heres my offering, if i get enough upvotes…maybe i’ll continue?
+1 is easy and sounds more like the original
This song is crazy hard
if you have an “average girl voice” i recommend 3rd capo and transpose to +1, works best for me.
I use +1, it is easy. And the strumming is quickU quickD and D hope this helped!
-Lemon boi
I think -4 is really easy
Im really struggling to find a strumming pattern that fits
i love this song
Does anyone know what the strumming pattern is in this song, also I dont know much about music, so would the strum pattern change if I moved along the transposer? Thanks to everyone for the help. This song is so good, I love cavetown. <3
hello i am transposing it +1, but i found the bridge to be too low when i was trying to sing it, so i moved my capo to +2 and used the same +1 chords. found it easier for female voices, and still sounds just as good
