Am
Sometimes I think I'm going crazy
Dm
Staring at the same four walls
C               G              Am
Waiting for the working day to end

Am
Then I get home so wasted, worn out
Dm
I curse at you and tell you
C                         G               Am
How I've done the work of ten to fifteen men

             F7
How I've struggled for my money
                        Am
Sweated blood to get us by, yeah
            F7
Well I'm tired of it honey
                                Dm         E
Think I'm gonna have to leave here for a while

I never seem to look at you
And see that somewhere underneath
A pair of tired eyes are crying out
Well you know I work hard all day long
Let me kiss you once with meaning
Just to kill this nagging doubt

Well you don't deny I do you proud
And you expect me to be tired
You say there's no future in our lives
While I persist I'm putting out the fire


Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, All you hear are hard luck stories
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, Just a few well chosen words
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, `Cause you're still the woman of a working man
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, You've got the heart of a working girl
(Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, Don't give me no hard luck stories)
(Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, Oh, oh no)

Solo

Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, All you hear are hard luck stories
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the ways I look at life
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the way I think the world treats me
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the way that I treat my wife
