[Intro 1]
[A][G][D][A]
[A][G][D][A]
[A][G][D][A]
[A][G][D][A]

[Verse 1]
You [A]get up every morning
from your a[G]larm clock's warning
Take the [D]8:15 into the [A]city
There's a [A]whistle up above
and people [G]pushin', people shovin'
And the [D]girls who try to look [A]pretty
And if your [A]train's on time,
you can [G]get to work by nine
And [D]start your slaving job to get your [A]pay
If you [A]ever get annoyed,
look at [G]me I'm self-employed
I [D]love to work at nothing all [A]day

[Chorus 1]
And I'll be [A]taking care of business,
[G]every day!
[D]Taking care of [A]business, every way!
I've been [A]taking care of business,
[G]it's all mine
[D]Taking care of business,
and [A]working overtime, work out

[Solo 1]
[A][G][D][A]
[A][G][D][A]

[Verse 2]
If it were [A]easy as fishin'
you could [G]be a musician
If [D]you could make sounds loud or [A]mellow
Get a [A]second-hand guitar,
chances [G]are you'll go far
If you [D]get in with the right bunch of [A]fellows
People [A]see you having fun
just a- [G]lying in the sun
[D]Tell them that you like it this [A]way
It's the [A]work that we avoid,
and we're [G]all self-employed
We [D]love to work at nothing all [A]day

[Chorus 2]
And we be [A]taking care of business,
[G]every day!
[D]Ta king care of [A]business, every way!
We've been [A]taking care of business,
[G]it's all mine!
