[Intro 1]
[D][Em][G][D][G][D]
[Em][G][D][Em][G][D][G][D]
[Em][G][D]
[Em][G][C][D][Em][G]

[Verse 1]
For over [G]half her life
She works from 9 to [Bm]5
Crossing T's and dotting I's
The neon lights can't hide
That [Em]she's lost [G]her shine[A]
[G]She said the mornings always
taste like turpentine
[Bm]She said understands
the point of sacrifice
[Em]And so should [G]I[A][G][Bm]
[A][D][F#m][Bm]

[Verse 2]
[Chorus]
Paycut but [A]it's a [D]paycheck[F#m]
[Bm]Surviving is my [G]best [A]revenge
[D]Wha[F#]t hur[Bm]ts you once
won't hurt [A]you [D]again[F#m]
[Bm]She meant what [A]she said[D]
[Em][C][D][Em][G]

[Verse 3]
Weathered lines across her face
Were an even trade
[Bm]Fingerprints worn down from overwork
And under pay
[Em]At minimum [G]wage[A]
[G]She said the overtime is worth
these aches and pains
[Bm]But is it worth the precious
time that ticks away
Every second, [Em]every [G]day[A][G]

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][A][D][F#m][Bm]
[A][D][F#m][Bm][A][D][F#m]
[Bm][A][D]
[F#m]

[Verse 4]
[Bm][Chorus]
She said whoa oh oh
[D]She said [A]who[D]a oh [Bm]oh[A][G][Bm]
[A]Who[D]a oh[Bm][G][Bm][A]
[D]oh[Bm][G][Bm][A]
[D]Whoa [Bm]oh oh[G][Bm][A]

[Verse 5]
[G]For over half her life
She walked the straightest lines
[Bm]She only wanted to provide
A future for
[Em]My brother and [G]I
[Chor[A]us][G][Bm][A]
