MAKIN UP FOR DOIN TIME-----THE POVERTY PLAINSMEN

TABBED BY sweet_j_69 at hotmail.com

Intro-G,F,C----G,F,C


 Verse

 G                    F   C
People say they work hard for a reason
 G                    F   C
Even though the dayjob is a grind
 G                    F   C
We all know they work hard for the weekend
 G                    F   C
Friday night makin up for doin time
 
 Verse-

 G                    F   C
Now the sun is low on the way to your horizon
 G                    F   C
But your still as high on the way into your town
 G                    F   C
The mood is cheap i think i'll just stop off and buy some
 G                    F   C
And I'm tickle pink with the bargain that i found


 Chorus-


 Em                    D
Now the party's on in your home town
 C                     D
The mood is up and the pressure is down
 Em                    D
We need this time just to clear our mind
 C                     D
Makin a livin makin up for doin time

 Verse-

 G                         F     C
Everyone here can hold the stage believe me
 G                         F     C
Even though the spotlights they don't shine
 G                         F     C
Cruzin around takin in all the scenery
 G                         F     C
The picture ain't big but the artwork is just fine

 Chorus-

 Em                   D
Now the party's on in your hometown
 C                    D
The mood is up and the pressure's down 
 Em                   D
We need this time just to clear our mind
 C                    D
Makin a livin makin up for doin time

 Verse-
 
  D                                 C
This common style might just be the death of me
  D                                    C
There might be better ways to go but this is alright
  Am                                  Em
I can hear my workin world, oh lord it's callin me
  C                              D
It'll get me but i'm putting up a fight

Cuz i got saturday night

 Chorus-

 Em                        D
Now the party's on in your hometown
 C                         D
The mood is up and the pressure's down
 Em                        D
We need this time just to clear our minds
 C                         D
Makin a livin makin up for doin time

Even though the day job isn't right
