Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][D][C][Em]
[B]

[Verse 1]
When all [Em]the work
is done
The work is done
A place for everything til
[D]everything is in its place
And every [C]setting sun
When the work was done
Was a day that didn't go to [B]waste
When all the [Em]work is done
It will be done
Producing everything for
[D]everything to be replaced
And in [C]dirty towns we
will settle down
Manufacture for the human [B]race

[Verse 2]
[Am]The greatest story that was ever
told in the [Em]lights of history
[B]Was the gra[C]nd designs of oth[D]er men[C]
And they [Em]built those walls for [B]you and me

[Verse 3]
So [C]don't start thinking
we can [D]start again
[Em]Start a riot in the [G]streets my friend
Or [C]they'll start pulling us [D]apart again
'Cause [Em]idle hands make [G]idle men
[C]Don't start thinking with
your [D]heart again
'Cause [Em]idle hands make [G]idle men
[Em]When the work

[Verse 4]
is done,
the work is done
We'll bebionic and bey[D]ond
the circuits of our minds
We'll get [C]nothing done
under electric sun
Leave the [Em]weight of labor far behind

[Verse 5]
[B]We're the gre[Am]atest
story that was ever told
But we [Em]don't know where we're [B]from
And [C]the walls became but a [D]memory
Of the [Em]days when all the [B]work begun

[Verse 6]
So [C]don't start thinking
we [D]can start again
[Em]Start a riot in the [G]streets my friend
Or [C]they'll start pulling us [D]apart again
'Cause [Em]idle hands make [G]idle men

[Verse 7]
Re[C]joice the day,
the [Bm]day [B]the work[Bm] is done[D]
Re[C]joice the day,
the [B]day the [Bm]work is [D]done
[G]

[Verse 8]
[Em]Everybody's counting [D]hours
[Am][G]
[Em]Everybody's counting [D]hours[Am]

[Verse 9]
Til [C]the day the [D]work [C]is [D]don[C]e
Til the day the [D]work [C]is done

[Verse 10]
[C][D]
[C]So don't start thinking
we [D]can start again
[Em]Start a riot in the [G]streets my friend
Or [C]they'll start pulling us [D]apart again
'Cause [Em]idle hands make [G]idle men

[Verse 11]
So [C]don't start thinking
we can [D]start again
[Em]Start a riot in the [G]streets my friend
Or [C]they'll start pulling us [D]apart again
'Cause [Em]idle hands make [G]idle men

[Verse 12]
Re[C]joice the day,the day
[Bm]the work is done[D]
Re[C]joice the day,
the [Bm]day [B]the work[Bm] is done[D]
[G]

[Verse 13]
[Em]Everybody's counting [D]hours
[Am][G]
[Em]Everybody's counting [D]hours[Am]
