Work And Then Wait

F C G

[Verse]
F                         C*          G
The Old Boy's Club has been throwing it's weight around
F                           C              G
  It's been around so long and I'm sick of the sound
F                             C            G
  If you're gonna say something, better say it loud
F                              C           G
  Gonna take some counter-action, gonna join the crowd

[Chorus]
F C Am G
           I won't be put in my place

F C Am G
           I won't be put in my

[Verse]
F
Do you feel okay?
C*          G                   F
'Cause I can't blame you for feeling down
C*            G
I'm gonna get myself together
    G**
I'm gonna paint the town


[Chorus]
F C Am G
           I won't be put in my place
F C Am G
           I won't be put in my


[Verse]
F           C
The hand that giveth
G
Is set to taketh way
F                  C
They strip you of your dignity
G
They make you work and then wait
F           C          G
They make you work and then wait
F                       C*          G
The right-wing views have been getting me down
F                      C                        G
  They say that work brings dignity, no matter what job they dish out
F                           C        G
  But the rich start life with a hand-me-down
F                         C                G
  The wage cap gets bigger, doesn't it make you proud?


[Verse]
F           C
The hand that giveth
G
Is set to taketh way
F                  C
They strip you of your dignity
G
They make you work and then wait
F           C          G
They make you work and then wait


[Verse]
F            Am      G
But I won't be put in my place
F            A   G
I won't be put in my place
G
I won't be put in my
F
  You attack the vulnerable


       Am            G
They'd better get out of your way
F
  You don't think you're culpable
       Am            G
They'd better get out of your way
F
  But there's nowhere to go
Em               Am
And it's no way to be
F
  There's enough to go around
C                       G
There must be a different way
F                G
  There must be a different way
