|Gadd9Gadd9  B7B7+5-9  |Bb6Bb6  A7A7   |Eb6Eb6    |Gadd9Gadd9    |

     Gadd9Gadd9          B7B7+5-9    Bb6Bb6    A7A7
I've been slavin' my mind just to try to find a way out
       FMaj9Fmaj9        A7A7+5-9     FF+5/Eb      D11D11
And it's been on my brain just to put the blame     on you
      Gadd9Gadd9       B7B7+5-9    E minorEm     G13G13 Gadd9/B
I've gotta find a way just to make my day a useful one
      Cmaj7Cmaj7         Gadd9/B
Cause I'm a front row ticket to a nothin' show
     Am7Am7          B7B7+5-9
I've got one free pass just to let me know


Gadd9Gadd9  B7B7+5-9   Bb6Bb6      A7A7
   Hey babe it's a stagnant time
    FMaj9Fmaj9         A7A7+5-9        FF+5/Eb      D11D11
But it takes more than that to hang my coat and hat     and sleep
      Gadd9Gadd9          B7B7+5-9
I've gotta sweat once more till my bones feel sore
Em9Em9         G13G13  G7/B
   I tell you wh-y-y-y-y

      Cmaj7Cmaj7         Gadd9/B
Cause I'm a front row ticket to a nothin' show
      Am7Am7         B7B7+5-9
I've gotta crash this prison and not let go
  CMaj9Cmaj9         Em7/BEm7/B          Am7Am7
My heart's on a sun cloud screamin' for progress
Am7Am7       D11D11
  'Cause I wa-a-a-a-nt

|Gadd9Gadd9  B7B7+5-9  |Bb6Bb6  A7A7  |FMaj9Fmaj9    |FF+5/Eb    |   D11D11  |
 work
     Gadd9Gadd9          B7B7+5-9          Em9Em9    G13G13 Gadd9/B
I'll keep slavin' my mind just to try to find some kind of light

  CMaj9Cmaj9              Gadd9/B
I'm gonna burn this damn ticket and think of tomorrow
   Am7Am7             B7B7+5-9
And I won't live this long life in stagnation no more
  CMaj9Cmaj9         Gadd9/B
My heart's on a sun cloud screamin' for progress
      Am7Am7 Bm7Bm7 CMaj9Cmaj9 A11A11  D11D11
Cause I'm a ma  a   a   a   an

And man's gotta
