Crawling Up A Hill

[Ab]Every m[C#]orning bout h[B]alf past [Eb]eight,
My Mummer wakes me says,"Don't be late",
Get to the office, tryin' to concentrate,
My l[C#]ife is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
-
[Ab]So I st[C#]op one day to f[B]igure it [Eb]out,
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt,
To sing the blues that I know all about,
My l[C#]ife is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
-
[C#]Minute after m[F#]inute,
[C]Second after s[F]econd,
[Bb]Hour after h[Eb]our goes [Ab]by,
[C#]Working for a r[F#]ich man,
[C]Staying just a p[F]oor man,
[Bb]Never stop to w[Eb]onder w[Ab]hy.

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

Minute after minute,
Second after second,
Hour after hour goes by,
Working for a rich man,
Staying just a poor man,
Never stop to wonder why.

So here I am in London town,
A better scene I'm gonna be around,
The kind of music that won't bring me down,
[Ab]Life is j[C#]ust a sl[B]ow tr[C#]ain cr[C#]awling [B]up a h[Ab]ill
