      E            D       A
Well, I get up at seven, yeah
       E             C   D
And I go to work at nine
E                  D       A
I got no time for livin', yes
     E               C   D
I'm workin' all the time
    E                    D       A
It seems to me, I could live my life
E                     C       D
A lot better than I think I am
E                D       A
I guess that's why they call me
E     C           D
They call me the workin' man

Chorus:
E D                       G A
They call me the workin' man
                    E
I guess that's what I am

So I get home at five o'clock
And I take myself out an ice cold beer
Always seem to be wond'rin'
Why there's nothin' goin' down here
It seems to me I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
The workin' man

Chorus - x2

Well, I get up at seven, yeah
And I go to work at nine
I got no time for livin'
Yes, I'm workin' all the time
It seems to me I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the workin' man

Chorus:
Well, they call me the workin' man
I guess that's what I am
They call me the workin' man
I guess that's what I am
