Em      D         C           B7
Every morning 'bout half past eight, 
  Em     D
My Mama wakes me says, 
C         B7
"Don't be late", 
Em         D              C        B7 
Get to the office, tryin' to concentrate, 
Em (break)
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

BRIDGE (POWER CHORDS, EXCEPT FOR E)
A            D
Minute after minute, 
G#           C#
Second after second, 
F#             B       E
Hour after hour goes by,
A              D 
Working for a rich girl, 
G#             C#
Staying just a poor girl, 
F#              B
Never stop to wonder why.


E         D       C     B7
So here I am in London town, 
Em        D       C      B7
A better scene I'm gonna be around, 
Em        D       C      B7
The kind of music that won't bring me down, 
Em [break]
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
