C#m                       F#
And you can have anyone that you have ever desired
A                             B
All you got to tell me now is why, why, why, why?

[Chorus]
A                      C#m
Welcome to the working week
      A                           E
Oh, I know it don't thrill you; I hope it don't kill you
A              C#m     F#
Welcome to the working week
           A                                       B
You got to do it till you're through it and so you better get to it

[Verse 2]
E                         G#m
All of your family had to kill to survive
C#m                                 F#
And they're still waiting for their big day to arrive
A                                   B
But if they knew how I felt, they'd bury me alive

[Chorus]
A                      C#m
Welcome to the working week
      A                           E
Oh, I know it don't thrill you; I hope it don't kill you
A              C#m     F#
Welcome to the working week
           A                                   B
You got to do it till you're through it so you better get to it

[Bridge]
G#m                          C#m
I hear you saying, "Hey, the city's alright."
         F#   G#m              A    B
When you only read about it in books
G#m                          C#m
Spend all your money getting so convinced
         A                    B     N.C.
That you never even bother to look

[Verse 3]
E                            G#m
Sometimes, I wonder if we're living in the same land
C#m                F#
 Why'd you want to be my friend
       A                           B
When I feel like a juggler running out of hands?

[Outro]
A                      C#m
Welcome to the working week
        A                      E
Oh, ah, welcome to the working week
