Artist/Band: Costello Elvis Tabs
Song: Welcome To The Working Week Tab
E G#m7
Now that your picture's in the paper bein' rythmic'lly admired
C#m7 F#
And you can have anyone that you have ever desired,
A B
All you gotta tell me now is why, why, why why.
A C#m
Welcome to the working week.
A
Oh, I know it don't thrill you.
E
I hope it don't kill you.
A C#m F#
Welcome to the working week.
A B
You gotta do it till you're through it so you better get to it.
E G#m
All of your fam'ly had to kill to survive,
C#m F#
And they're still waitin' for their big day to arrive.
A B
But if they knew how I felt, they'd bury me alive.
A C#m
Welcome to the working week.
A
Oh, I know it don't thrill you.
E
I hope it don't kill you.
A C#m F#
Welcome to the working week.
A B
You gotta do it till you're through it so you better get to it.
G#m C#m
I hear you sayin', "Hey, the city's all right,"
F#m G#m A B
When you only read about it in books.
G#m C#m
Spend all your money gettin' so convinced
A B
That you never even bother to look
E G#m C#m
Sometimes I wonder if we're livin' in the same land.
F#
Why d'you wanna be my friend
A B
When I feel like a juggler runnin' outta hands?
A C#m
Welcome to the working week,
A E
Oh ah, welcome to the working week.

The first verse hit the chords once each and let's them ring-- the first
chorus and after the chords are struck once on the first downbeat followed
by two half beats (a "one and two" syncopated count if you wasted
years as a high-school band-nazi)
Welcome to the Working Week- Elvis Costello
