Intro.:  |(D) |(G) | x 2

(Verse)
The (D)other day I called myself com-(G)plaining
Now my (D)boss has got me working over time (G)
(D) Then the stranger who was sitting there be-(G)side me
Said, I (D)spent all day in the unemployment (G) line
Are there (Bm)open shifts, are they hiring on, I'll work (G)any hours even all night long
If (D)you could put a good word in for (A)me

(Chorus)
Every (D)time you think you got it bad, you can (G)find someone who's got it worse (A)
All the (D)things you take for granted now, they (G)started out as blessings first (A)
If you (Bm)got someone who loves you (A) and a (G)steady job that puts (F#m)food on the (Em)table
(F#m)If you're strong and (G)able, (A) man, be (D)grateful |(G) |(D) |(G)

(Verse)
We com-(D)plain about how much it's gonna (G)cost us
To feel our (D)20 something thousand dollars cars (G)
And (D)living in the land of milk and (G)honey
It's so (D)easy to forget how lucky we (G) are
We can (Bm)work hard and buy a patch of dirt and on (G)sunday morning we can go to church
And (D)pray for those who don't have it as good as you (A)

(Chorus)
Every (D)time you think you got it bad, you can (G)find someone who's got it worse (A)
All the (D)things you take for granted now, they (G)started out as blessings first (A)
If you (Bm)got someone who loves you (A) and a (G)steady job that puts (F#m)food on the (Em)table
(F#m)If you're strong and (G)able, (A) man, be (C)grateful |(G) |(D) |(A)

(Chorus)
Oh, every (D)time you think you got it bad, you can (G)find someone who's got it worse (A)
All the (D)things you take for granted now, they (G)started out as blessings first (A)
If you (Bm)got someone who loves you (A) and a (G)steady job that puts (F#m)food on the (Em)table
(F#m)If you're strong and (G)able, (A) man, be (D)grate-(G)ful
