[Verse]
Am Am/B D/F# Am Am/B D/F#
In a room all alone waiting by the telephone
Am Am/B D/F#
With a tear in his eye and a pen in his hand
Fsus2 E Am D E
So begins the diary of a working man
Am Am/B D/F#
He'd been poor man all his life
Am Am/B D/F#
And just when things were going right
Am Am/B D/F#
Some stranger takes his woman away
Fsus2 E Am D E
He doesn't know if he'll see, oh, another day
Am D E C G/B
Oh, another day

[Verse 2]
Am Am/B D/F#
Time has come and he was right
Am Am/B D/F#
It was a cold and rainy night
Am Am/B D/F#
And he thought for sure she would follow
Fsus2 E Am D E C G/B
But it won't be the same, no tomorrow
Am Am/B D/F#
Now here's a man glory bound
Am Am/B D/F#
In a pool of dreams about to drown
Am Am/B D/F#
If he can just get through this night
Fsus2 E Am D E
Then maybe tomorrow things will work out right
Am D E C G/B
Oh, will work out right

Well, with the pain in his blood
Am C D F G
He'd love to take her if he could
Am C D F G
And as he wakes with a scream
Am C D F E
To only realize it's just reality

[Outro]
Am Am/B D/F#
He woke with sweaty hands
Am Am/B D/F#
Maybe there'll be a change in plans
Am Am/B D/F#
With a tear in his eye and a gun in his hand
Fsus2 E Am Am/B D/F# Am
So ends the diary of a workingman
In a room all alone
Waiiting by the telephone
With a tear in his eye and a pen in his hand
So begins the diary of a working man
He'd been poor man all his life
And just when things were going right
Some stranger takes his woman away
He doesn't know if he'll see
Oh, another day
Oh, another day
Time has come and he was right
It was a cold and rainy night
And he thought for sure she would follow
But it won't be the same, no...
Tomorrow
Now here's a man glory bound
In a pool of dreams about to drown
If he can just get through this night
Then maybe tomorrow things
Will work out right
Oh, will work out right
Well, with the pain in his blood
He'd love to take her if he could
And as he wakes with a scream
To only realize it's just reality
He woke with sweaty hands
Maybe there'll be a change in plans
With a tear in his eye and a gun in his hand
So ends the diary of a workingman
