Work Week Bop

I did some calculating and I figured that I should be able to retire sometime in my 90s, but that’s okay though. By then the 90s will be the new 50s I figure.

Work Week Bop

By Jeff Gilpin

March 31, 2012
Capo 2
Intro
[G] [G] [G] [D] [G] [D] [G] 
Verse 1
[G]Monday morning go to work

I’ll [G]be on time if I’m in luck
Then [D]work the whole day [G]through
But I’m [D]coming home to [G]you

Verse 2
[G]Tuesday morning same old thing
[G]Driving working living the dream
A[G]nother day in the endless stream
As I [D]work the whole day [G]through
But I’m [D]coming home to [G]you

Chorus
[C]Somehow I can put up with it
[G]Action adventure the way I live it
[C]Maybe someday I can give it
[D]Up but I don’t know [D7]when…

Verse 3
[G]Wednesday morning sure am tired
[G]Stayed up late I was too wired
But I [G]got to show up so I don’t get fired
Then [D]work the whole day [G]through
But I’m [D]coming home to [G]you

Verse 4
[G]Thursday morning’s a piece of cake
To[G]day’s there’s nothing I can’t take
Don’t [G]even care if they make me stay late
I’ll [D]work the whole day [G]through
But I’m [D]coming home to [G]you

[G]Action adventure the way I live it

[D]Up but I don’t know [D7]when…

Verse 5
[G]Friday morning’s finally here
[G]I’ll make it through I have no fear
[G]And the weekend’s oh so near
After [D]working the whole day [G]through
Then I’m [D]coming home to [G]you

Verse 6
My [G]weekend goes by much too fast
[G]My how does the time fly past
[G]Trying to make my Sunday last
[D]Loving the whole week [G]through
I'll [D]spend my time with [G]you

Re: Work Week Bop

hey Jeff
It's always good to be optimistic about actually retiring..
What with the national debt and the way to long life expectancy wev'e all got now I hear retirement will be outlawed so only the bankers and govement workers can stop work..
The rest can just keep working and pay their taxes..

The function of music is to liberate in the soul those feelings which we keep locked up in the heart....

Re: Work Week Bop

Thanks Daddy and Ark - A co-worker of mine mentioned they were retiring last week, which got me to thinking about the subject. I have no idea when that day will come, but I know I can't see it from here...I expect to keep going for the foreseeable future, but I guess there are worse things.

Re: Work Week Bop

I'm looking forward to hearing how you play and sing this, Jeff. Are  you going to record it?

Re: Work Week Bop

Hey MaryBelle - I will eventually, but I'm mostlikely going to try it out on Zurf first. It's been a while since I've been able to attend his monthly weekend jam session, and I have a bunch of new stuff to try out there.
