[D][C][Am][C][D][C][Am][C]
[D]
[C]You get

[Verse 1]
[Am]
up every [C]morning 'fore [D]the sun comes [C]up
Toss [Am]a lunch box [C]into a [D]pickup [C]truck
A [Am]long hard [C]day sure [D]ain't much [C]fun
But you [Am]got to get i[C]t started if
you [D]want to get it [C]done.
[D]You set your mind and roll
up your sleeves
You're [E]workin' on a [D]Working Man's
[C]Ph.D.[A]

[Interlude 1]
[A][Am][C][D][C][Am][C][D]

[Verse 2]
[C]With your hea[Am]rt and your hands
[C]and [D]the sweat on your [C]brow
You [Am]build the things that [C]really
make the [D]world go [C]'round
If it [Am]works, if it [C]runs, if it [D]lasts for [C]years
You can [Am]bet your bottom [C]dollar
it was [D]made right [C]here
With [D]pride and honor and dignity
From [E]a man with a [D]Working
[C]Man's [Am]Ph.D[A].
[Am]Now, there

[Verse 3]
[D]ain't no shame
in a job well done
From driving a nail to driving a truck
As a matter of fact,
I'd like to set things straight
[B]A few more people should
[E]be pullin' their weight
If you [D]want a cram course in reality
You [E]get yourself a [D]Working Man's
[C]Ph.D.[A]

[Interlude 2]
[A][Am][C][D][C][Am][C][D]
[C]
When [Am]the quittin' whistle blows

[Verse 4]
[C]
and [D]the dust settles [C]down
There [Am]ain't no [C]trophies or
[D]cheering [C]crowds
You'll [Am]face your[C]self at
[D]the end of [C]the day
And [Am]be damned pr[C]oud of
[D]whatever you've [C]made
Can't [D]hang it on the wall
for the world to see
But you've [E]got yourself a [D]Working
[C]Man's [Am]Ph.D[A].[Am]

[Verse 5]
Now, there [D]ain't no shame
in a job well done
From driving a nail to driving a truck
As a matter of fact,
I'd like to set things straight
A [B]few more people should
[E]be pullin' their weight
If you [D]want a cram course in reality
You [E]get yourself a Work[D]ing Man's [C]Ph.D.
