I haven't had to pay for a drink in a while
A augmentedA                  D MajorD            G+G
I’ve never been accused of having a pair of shoes that were out of style

I don't have to wait for a line

Or cut them out for me

Everybody knows my name

All I ever take is my time

It's money for nothing and it's chicks for free

Oh

Chorus:
E MajorE
Twenty four hours a week
D MajorD            A augmentedA
And seven months a year
E MajorE
Filling your cup with joy
   D MajorD           A augmentedA
Is it whiskey, gin or beer?
E MajorE
You tell me I'm spinning my wheels
    G+G    A augmentedA   D MajorD
But to me it's no big deal
D MajorD          E MajorE          A augmentedA
Watching these happy hours turn into years

A augmentedA   D MajorD  G+G
A augmentedA


Verse 3:
A augmentedA                      D MajorD   G+G
I've been getting paid serving drinks for a while
A augmentedA
These young girls they just stay the same
   D MajorD            G+G
But I think my shoes have gone out of style
A augmentedA
Feeling kind of short on time
  D MajorD                  G+G
The lines are getting longer and they're not for me
A augmentedA                     D MajorD   G+G
I’ve been getting paid serving drinks for a while
G+G
Oh

D MajorD            A augmentedA
Seven months a year
E MajorE
I'm not telling you you've gotta go home
    D MajorD        A augmentedA
But you can't stay here
E MajorE
I'm still here spinning my wheels
    G+G   A augmentedA   D MajorD
It used to be no big deal
D MajorD          E MajorE          A augmentedA
Watching these happy hours turn into years
A augmentedA          E MajorE
Twenty four hours a week
          G+G
And seven months a year
D MajorD          E MajorE         A augmentedA
Watching these happy hours, year after year
