[Intro: Dolly Parton]
D# A# G# Fm
(Nine to five)
[Verse 1: Kelly Clarkson, Dolly Parton]
D#
Tumble out of bed and I stumble to the kitchen
A#
Pour myself a cup of ambition
G# Fm
And yawn and stretch and try to come to life
D#
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'
A#
Out on the street, the traffic's jumpin'
G# Fm
With folks like me on the job from nine to five (Mm, yeah)
[Chorus: Kelly Clarkson, Dolly Parton, Both]
G#
Workin' nine to five, what a way to make a livin'
D# A#
Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'
G#
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
Gm Fm
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it (If you let it)
G#
Workin' nine to five for service and devotion
D# A#
You would think that I would deserve a fat promotion
G#
Want to move ahead, but the boss won't seem to let me
Gm Fm
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me (He's out to get me)
[Post-Chorus: Kelly Clarkson, Dolly Parton]
G#
(Nine to five) Nine to five
D# A#
(Nine to five) Workin', workin', workin' (Nine to five)
[Verse 2: Dolly Parton, Kelly Clarkson, Both]
D#
They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter
A#
You're just a step on the boss man's ladder
G# Fm
But you got dreams he'll never take away (He'll never take 'em away)
D#
You're in the same boat with a lot of your friends
A#
Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in
G# Fm
And then the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way (I just roll away)
[Chorus: Kelly Clarkson, Dolly Parton, Both]
G#
Workin' nine to five, what a way to make a livin'
D# A#
Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'
G#
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
Gm Fm
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it (But you won't let it)
G#
Workin' nine to five, yeah, they got you where they want you
D# A#
There's a better life and you dream about it, don't you? (You dream about it)
G#
It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it
Gm Fm
And you spend your life puttin' money in his wallet (Puttin' money in his wallet)
G#
Workin' nine to five, what a way to make a livin'
D# A#
Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'
G#
They just use your mind, and they never give you credit
Gm Fm
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it (Crazy if you let it)
G#
Workin' nine to five
D# A#
Workin' nine to five
G#
It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it (Mm)
Gm Fm
And you spend your life puttin' money in his wallet (Puttin' money in his wallet)
[Post-Chorus: Kelly Clarkson, Dolly Parton, Both]
G#
(Nine to five) Just workin', workin', workin'
D# A#
(Nine to five) Just workin', workin', workin'
G#
(Nine to five) And you think about it, don't you?
(Nine to five) Yeah, you think about it, don't you?
