G+G  E minorEm
ooh! aah! 4x

I hear something saying
G+G  E minorEm

ooh! aah! 8x

(Well, don't you know?)

G+G            C majorC         G+G   E minorEm G+G
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
            C majorC         D MajorD   G+G
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang

All day long they're singing

All day long they work so hard,
C majorC           D MajorD
'till the sun is going down
G+G       E minorEm
Working on the highway and byways,
  C majorC         D MajorD
and wearing, wearing a frown
G+G              E minorEm
You hear them moaning their lives away,
C majorC         D MajorD
then you hear somebody say

I'm going home see my woman,
