A/N: The intro is actually a guitar riff, but since I haven't figured it out, you can just strum down once for every chord to get the same effect. [Intro] G Try to be perfect but I'm not Em In this line of work that's all you've got to be C G So many details that we need to oversee C G Climbing and then descending rapidly [Chorus] C G Oh the work, it's just so hard C G I heard someone say, "Do or do not" C G There is no try D7 People could die [Verse] G Em Hey boy, we got ourselves a situation C D Without the money and the paid vacation G Ain't no way you can survive G Em Hey boy, you take this ticket to the station C D Cut off your friends and all your family relations G You might make it out alive [Interlude] G Em C G C D [Chorus] C G Oh the work, it's just so hard C G I heard someone say, "Do or do not" C G There is no try D D7 People could die [Verse] G Em Hey boy, we got ourselves a situation C D Without the money and the paid vacation G Ain't no way you can survive G Em Hey boy, you take this ticket to the station C D Cut off your friends and all your family relations G You might make it out alive [Chorus] (Strum down in doubles repeatedly for the rest of the song.) G Oh the work, it's just so hard I heard someone say, "Do or do not" There is no try People could die
