Tom: G
G
Try to be perfect but I'm not
Em
In this line of work that's all you've got to be
C G
So many details that we need to oversee
C G
Climbing and then descending rapidly
[Chorus]
C G
Oh the work, it's just so hard
C G
I heard someone say, "Do or do not"
C G
There is no try
D7
People could die
[Verse]
G Em
Hey boy, we got ourselves a situation
C D
Without the money and the paid vacation
G
Ain't no way you can survive
G Em
Hey boy, you take this ticket to the station
C D
Cut off your friends and all your family relations
G
You might make it out alive
[Interlude]
G Em C G C D
[Chorus]
C G
Oh the work, it's just so hard
C G
I heard someone say, "Do or do not"
C G
There is no try
D D7
People could die
[Verse]
G Em
Hey boy, we got ourselves a situation
C D
Without the money and the paid vacation
G
Ain't no way you can survive
G Em
Hey boy, you take this ticket to the station
C D
Cut off your friends and all your family relations
G
You might make it out alive
[Chorus] (Strum down in doubles repeatedly for the rest of the song.)
G
Oh the work, it's just so hard
