[Verse 1]
A
Rain comin' down and the roof won't hold 'er
D
Well I lost my job and I feel a little older
E
Car won't run and our love's grown colder
A
Maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin'
E A
Maybe things'll get a little better
A
The clothes need washin' and the fire won't start
D
Kids all cryin' and you're breakin' my heart
E
Whole damn place is fallin' apart, but
A
Maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin'
E A
Maybe things'll get a little better
[Chorus]
E D
Work your fingers to the bone what do you get ... ?
A E A
Boney fingers... boney fingers
[Verse 2]
A
I've been broke as long as I remember
D
Well I get a little money, I gotta run and spend 'er
E
When I try to save it, pretty woman come and take it
A
Sayin' maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin'
E A
Maybe things'll get a little better.
[Chorus]
E D
Work your fingers to the bone what do you get ... ?
A E A
Boney fingers... boney fingers
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
A
The grass won't grow and the sun's too hot
D
The whole darn world is goin' to pot
E
Might as well like it 'cause you're all that I've got
A
But, maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin'
E A
Maybe things'll get a little better
[Chorus]
E D
Work your fingers to the bone what do you get ... ?
A E A
Boney fingers... boney fingers
[Verse 4]
A
Rain comin' down and the roof won't hold 'er
D
Well I lost my job and I feel a little older
E
Car won't run and our love's grown colder
A
Maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin'
E A
Maybe things'll get a little better
[Chorus]
E D
Work your fingers to the bone what do you get ... ?
A E A
Boney fingers... boney fingers
E D
Work your fingers to the bone what do you get ... ?
A E A
Boney fingers... boney fingers
