Check the song for strum patterns.

Intro: G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD x4
Verse 1:
G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD
Working all day for a mean little man

Hours on the phone making pointless calls
G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD

Sometimes I catch myself staring into space
G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G
Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face

Bridge:
E minorEm (G+G) D MajorD (D MajorD)
How did it come to be that you and I must be
C majorC G+G D MajorD
Far away from each other every day?
E minorEm (G+G) D MajorD (D MajorD)
Why must I spend my time filling up my mind
C majorC D MajorD
With facts and figures that never add up anyway?
G+G
They never add up anyway
(G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD

Working all day for a mean little guy

With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie
