Words and music by Matt Hillyer Chorus: A D Well it takes four walls closin in on me, E A To drive me out of my mind each and every day, A Workin real hard tryin to make ends meet, A D
Doin the best I can, A D A And if I ever get a head before I'm dead, E A I'll be a lucky man Verse: A Every mornin when I punch the clock I know this ain't the life for me, A E I've got dreams like everyone else, places I wanna see., A D But life's got a way of cutting dreams into like a cold sharp knife, A D A E A I've gotta hold on. I've gotta be strong. I wanna change my life Bridge: E A There are people to whom money's no concern. E A It seems as thought they've got enough to burn, D A Well I don't need a lot I could use a little more than I've got, B E How many of these lessons must I learn Verse: A I've got a little girl that I love. She says she loves me too., A E You could search all over this great big world you'd never find a love this true, A D I wanna buy her a ring, I wanna buy her a house, but I'm livin in a two room shack, A D A E A I know I could if I could get the man from off of my back Repeat Chorus:
