I [D]work on the front line

[D]And I sleep in a fever
So this is my life
[A]I c[G]ry in my sleep (cry boy, cry boy)
It just makes me weep when I try, how I [D]try
I [F]know what it means to work
hard [G]on machines
[D]It's a labour of love so please
don't ask me why
Looking for reasons (day in, day out)
Trying too hard (he's trying
[A]too [D]hard)
Moving in circles (too hot, too hot)
Don't get very far (don't get
[A]very far)
Should I [G]ask you to dance? (dance boy,

If I promise romance would
you come for the [D]ride?
[F]I know what it means to
work hard [Dm]on machines

one that lasts for all time?

You take me [G]up, oh [D]hoh,
You take me [Em]up to the higher g[D]round
You take me [G]up so [D]high
Now I [Em]never want to [C]come back [D]down
I'm glad in these hard times (day in,
day out)
There's hope in your eyes
(hope in his [A]eyes)
I don't [D]need [G]a religion [D](too hot,
too hot)
Cause this love never dies (love never [A]dies)
I be[G]lieve in today (believe boy,
believe boy)
