G#m When all the work is done The work is done F# A place for everything til everything is in its place E And every setting sun When the work was done B Was a day that didn't go to waste G#m When all the work is done It will be done F# Producing everything for everything to be replaced E And in dirty towns we will settle down B Manufacture for the human race C#m The greatest story that was ever G#m told in the lines of history E Was the grand designs of other men B And they built those walls for you and me Chorus: E F# So don't start thinking we can start again G#m B Start a riot in the streets my friend E F# Or they'll start pulling us apart again G#m B Cause idle hands make idle men E F# Don't start thinking with your heart again G#m B Cause idle hands make idle men When the work is done, the work is done We'll be bionic and beyond the circuits of our minds We'll get nothing done under electric sun Leave the weight of labour far behind We're the greatest story that was ever told But we don't know where we're from And the walls became but a memory Of the days when all the work begun Chorus: So don't start thinking we can start again Start a riot in the streets my friend Or they'll start pulling us apart again Cause idle hands make idle men Rejoice the day, the day the work is done Rejoice the day, the day the work is done B G#m F# C#m Everybody's counting hours B G#m F# C#m Everybody's counting hours E Til the day the work is done Til the day the work is done Chorus: So don't start thinking we can start again Start a riot in the streets my friend Or they'll start pulling us apart again Cause idle hands make idle men Don't start thinking we can start again Start a riot in the streets my friend Or they'll start pulling us apart again Cause idle hands make idle men Rejoice the day, the day the work is done Rejoice the day, the day the work is done Everybody's counting hours Everybody's counting hours | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsC#m  E  F#  G#m  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
