I worked like a slave for years,

Sweat so hard just to end my fears,

Not to end my life a poor man

Don?t you run in, in the lanes, run for time.

Left school with a first class pass,

Started work, but as second class,

My world is spinning around 
            Bb          F              C 
Every-thing is lost that I found
