Am
Sometimes I think I'm going crazy
Dm
Staring at the same four walls
C G/B F
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/B F
How I've done the work of ten to fifteen men
F7
How I've struggled for my money
F7 Am
Sweated blood to get us by, yeah
F7
Well I'm tired of it honey
F7 Dm E
Think I'm gonna have to leave here for a while
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, All you hear are hard luck stories
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the ways I look at life
Cm F D7
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the way I think the world treats me
Cm G/B F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the way that I treat my wife
C Bb F C Bb F
Am
I never seem to look at you
Dm
And see that somewhere underneath
C G/B F
A pair of tired eyes are crying out
Am
Well you know I work hard all day long
Dm
Let me kiss you once with meaning
C G/B F
Just to kill this nagging doubt
F7
Well you don't deny I do you proud
Am
And you expect me to be tired
F7
You say there's no future in our lives
D/F# E
While I persist I'm putting out the fire
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, All you hear are hard luck stories
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, Just a few well chosen words
Cm F D7/F#
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, `Cause you're still the woman of a working man
Cm G/B F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, You've got the heart of a working girl
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, Don't give me no hard luck stories
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, Oh, oh no
Cm F D7/F#
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, Don't give me no
Cm F
Don't you give me no hard luck stories
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, All you hear are hard luck stories
Cm F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the ways I look at life
Cm F D7
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the way I think the world treats me
Cm G/B F
Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the way that I treat my wife
