[Intro]
D G Am F G C G Fmaj7 G
[Verse]
D Am
You get out of bed about half-past seven
C G D
Your days are hell so sleeping's heaven
D Am
Unfold the paper over yesterday's tea
C G D
Good morning Mr Howard, how do you feel?
Am
Another batch of figures says everything's fine
C G
But that's not what they are saying on the dole-form line
[Verse]
D Am
Pocketful of silver like a pocket full of rocks
C G D
You stagger down the road to the telephone box
D Am
"That job's gone" says the person when you ring
C G D
"You're the thirteenth today" as he drops the thing
Am
Postman at the gate just to make you feel better
C G Fmaj7 G
Another half a dozen no-job letters
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C G Am Em
The debts pile up and your confidence goes
C G D
And everyone in the family knows
C G Am Em
They sympathize because they feel they should
C B
Seven days a week and the money's no good
[Instrumental]
A B A G Fmaj7 G Fmaj7 D G Am F G C
[Verse]
D Am
So you wander around the house for hours at a time
C G D
You're looking for a riff and you're looking for a rhyme
D Am
Another cup of coffee, no sugar or cream
C G D
While the sun goes down on your Australian dream
Am
The lady next door's screaming at her kids
C G Fmaj7 G
Because the dole didn't come but the landlord did
[Verse]
D Am
You spend a half a day a week at the C.E.S
C G D
You get a flint-eyed stare from behind the desk
D Am
I haven't got a job and you think it's a sin
