----------------------------------------

Capo 4th fret
Donovan lifts the fingers off the third and fourth strings and hammers them
back on while strumming Am
throughout the song. It's not too hard a pattern to pick up.
Am* = strum and let ring
Cmaj9/B = x20010
[Verse 1]
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
I went up for my interview on the fourth day of July
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
Personnel man he questioned me until I nearly cried
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
He made me fill in forms until I shook with fear
Am* C Cmaj9/B Am
About the colour of my toilet roll and if my cousin is queer
[Chorus]
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
Here's your goldwatch and the shackles for your chain
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
And your piece of paper to say you left here sane
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
And if you've a son who wants a good career
Am* C Cmaj9/B Am
Just get him to sign on the dotted line and work for fifty years
[Verse 2]
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
He asked me how many jobs I'd had before
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
He nearly had a heart attack when I answered, four
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
Four jobs in twenty years, oh, this can never be
Am* C Cmaj9/B Am
We only take on men who work until they die
[Chorus]
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
Here's your goldwatch and the shackles for your chain
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
And your piece of paper to say you left here sane
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
And if you've a son who wants a good career
Am* C Cmaj9/B Am
Just get him to sign on the dotted line and work for fifty years
[Verse 3]
Am C Cmaj9/B Am
He took me outside to where the gravestones stand in line
