[Verse 1]
In the middle [F#m]of late last night I was [F]sittin' on a curb
[G]I didn't know what abo[Bm]ut but[D]
I was [C]feeling quite disturbed
[Em]A street sweeper came whis[D]tlin' by
He was [F]bouncin' every [A]step
It seemed [Bm]strange how good he [E]felt
So I [Asus4]asked him while he swe[A]pt

[Verse 2]
He said "It's [D]my job [A]to
[Bm]be cleaning up this [Em]mess
And [D]that's enough [G]reas
on to go [Asus4]for me
[A]It's my job[D] to [A]be bet
[Bm]ter than the r[Em]est
And that [D]makes [G]the day [A]for me"
[D]

[Verse 3]
[Em]
Got an uncle who [D]owns [F#m]a bank
he's [D]a self [F]made millionaire
[G]He never had any[Bm] one[D] to love
never [C]had no one to care
[Em]He always to seemed kind of sa[D]d to m[F#m]e
So [D]I a[F]sked him why that w[Asus4]as
[A]And he [Bm]told me it's becau[E]se in my
con[Asus4]tract the[A]re's a clause
That says "It's [D]my job [A]to
wor[Bm]ried half [Em]to death
And [D]that's the thing [G]people
[Asus4]respect in me
[A]It's a job[D] but[A] withou[Bm]t it I'd be less[Em]
Than [D]what I ex[G]pect [A]from [D]me"

[Verse 4]
I've been lazy most all [D]of my life
Writing [F]songs and sleeping late
[G]Any manual lab[Bm]or I'v[D]e
done [C]purely by mistake
[Em]If street sweepers can s[D]mile then
I've got no [F]right to feel up[A]set
[Asus4]But somet[A]imes I stil[Bm]l forget[E]
Till the light[Em]s go on
and [A]the stage is set
And [Em]the song hits [D]home
and you [G]feel that sweat
[A]It's my job

[Verse 5]
[D]to [A]be differ[Bm]ent than the res[Em]t
and [D]that's enough [G]reason
to go [Asus4]for me[A]
It's my [D]job [A]to be bet
[Bm]ter than the b[Em]est
and [D]that's a tough [G]break [A]for [D]me
[B]It's my job[E] to [B]be clean
[A]ing up [C#m]this mess[F#m]
and [E]that's enough [A]reason to go [B]for me

[Verse 6]
It's my [E]job [B]to be better[A] tha[C#m]n the best[F#m]
and that [E]makes [A]the day [B]for
