  G / / / D7 / / / G / / / 2 / / /

  

              D7            G

  40 years we labor on this chain

  C                G                D

  Workin' much too hard for what we gain

  G             D7               Em

  You and I, we taste the bitter end

  G          D7                G

  Workin' 40 years for another man

  

  Verse 2:

  Got no name, just a number in the book

  Friendly faces hide the royal look

  Nothin' down on you, it's such a shame

  Workin' 40 years for another man

  

  CHORUS:

  C           G            C

   40 years 40-- long long years

  G

   Give the man your blood and sweat and tears

                     D7          G

  Cash your check on Friday afternoon

  C                 G                D

  Sunday night your money's gone too soon

  G                  D7             Em

  For your children, will it be the same?

  G          D7                G

  Workin' 40 years for another man

  

  (instrumental, same pattern as verses)

  

  (chorus, then repeat its last line and fade)
