Billy Joel - Weekend Song: chords

      F
This back-breakin', bone-shakin',
                              C
belly-achin', hard-workin', two more hours to go
           A#
Yes, it's keepin' me alive, doin' nine
               G                     C
to five and I ain't got nothin' to show
        F
Pretty soon I'll be leavin' with the wages
                       C
I'm receivin', but I know it's gonna be all right
A#               Dm                         G
Come on babe and take me away, we got some money
    A#/C    F
to spend tonight

Chorus:
C                       Dm                 D#
Pick me up at the station meet me at the train
A#                                          F
Have a meal and a shower and a change of clothes
C                       Dm                     D#
I can't afford a vacation but I can take the strain
A#           G/B            C
Long as I can be with you, find a way
to burn it as quickly as I earn it

Yes, it's back-breakin', bone-shakin',
belly-achin', hard-workin'
Two more hours to go
Seven long years for the same corporation
And I ain't got nothin' to show

And tonight when I'm leavin'
I'll be just breakin' even
But I know it's gonna be all right

I shake off my blues when you put on your shoes
We got some money to spend tonight
Oh, I don't wanna stand here and sound accusin'
Everybody does their share of losin'
If I'm gonna lose it
I might as well be doin' it right

Chorus

This back-breakin', bone-shakin',
belly-achin', hard-workin'
Two more hours to go
Yes, it's keeping me alive doin' nine to five
And I ain't got nothin to show

And tonight when I'm leavin'
I'll be just breakin' even
But I know it's gonna be all right

Chorus:
Come on, babe, and take me away
We got some money to spend tonight
Come on, babe, and take me away
We got some money to spend tonight
