[G#m] [Bmaj7] [Emaj7] [D#m7]
Every morning bout half past eight,
My Mama wakes me says Dont be late,
Get to the office, tryin to concentrate,

My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

I ll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt,
To sing the blues that I know about,

My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
