Capo 1

G                 Cadd9        G
You can't talk to me like that boss
G            Cadd9        G
I don't care who you are
G                            Cadd9
If you don't want to have to hang your own dry wall
G          Cadd9 
Don't push me too far
D        Cadd9      G
Boomtown work ain't hard to come by
D   Cadd9  G
Boomtown   workers are
D         Cadd9      G 
You might be the one running the show but
Cadd9                            D
That don't mean you're in charge


Chorus:
      G                      Cadd9
I was looking for a job when I found this one
G                        Cadd9
Don't need the work like you need the work done
G             Cadd9 
You look like you're under pressure
G                   Cadd9              G 
I was looking for a job when I met you


I'm sharing a room with two guys over at the motel 6 boss
Sending every dime I make here home to my ex-wife
Just did two years and 28 days
With a little better aim i'd been in there for my life
So you see, broke won't take much getting used to
Neither will a barb wire jail house wall
Watch what you say to someone with nothing
It's almost like having it all


Chorus 2:
I was looking for a job when I found this one
Don't need the work like you need the work done
You look like you're under pressure
I was already looking for a job two weeks ago when I met you, remember?


Spoken:
You know what I really ought to get is a job like
you got, chief. you know. driving around
checking on guys like me. yelling from the window of
a pickup truck with the A/C cranked up and your clothes all
nice and clean. yeah...that might be nice...on the other hand....
