Verse 1:
E D E D
Up every morning just to keep a job
E D E D
I gotta fight my way through the hustlin' mob
E D E D
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
E D E
While another day goes down the drain
Chorus 1:
A D A D
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
A D A D
Noone owns a piece of my time
A D A D
And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes
A B
Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah
E D E D E D E D
Adaladee-hee, hee, yeah
Verse 2:
Tradin' my time for the pay I get
Livin' on money that I ain't made yet
Gotta keep goin', gotta make my way
But I live for the end of the day
Chorus 2:
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
Noone owns a piece of my time
And there's a long-haired girl who waits, I know
To ease my troubled mind, yeah
Adaladee-hee, hee, yeah
Verse 3:
In the shelter of her arms everythings OK
She talks and the world goes slippin' away (it slips away)
And I know the reason I can still go on
When every other is gone
Chorus 3:
In my five o'clock world she waits for me
Nothing else matters at all
'Cause every time my baby smiles at me
I know that its all worthwhile, yeah
Coda: [repeat to fade]
E D E D E D E D
Adaladee-hee, hee, yeah
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official VOGUES tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
