five o clock world chords
the vogues

E D E D
up every morning just to keep a job
E D E D
i gotta fight my way through the hustling mob
E D E D
sounds of the city pounding in my brain
E D E
while another day goes down the drain

A D A D
but its a five o clock world when the whistle blows
A D A D
no one owns a piece of my time
A D A D
and there s a five o clock me inside my clothes
A B
thinking that the world looks fine , yeah

E D E D
trading my time for the pay i get
E D E D
living on money that i ain t made yet
E D E D
i m going to try to make my way
E D E
while i live for the end of the day

A D A D
cuz its a five o clock world when the whistle blows
A D A D
no one owns a piece of my time , and
A D A D
there s a long haired girl who waits , i know
A B
to ease my troubled mind , yeah

E D E D E D E
oh my lady , yeah
E D E D E D E D
oh my lady , yeah

E D E D
in the shelter of her arms everything s ok
E D E D
when she talks then the world goes slipping away
E D E D
and i know the reason i can still go on
E D E
when every other reason is gone

A D A D
in my five o clock world she waits for me
A D A D
nothing else matters at all
A D A D
cuz every time my baby smiles at me
A B
i know that s it s all worthwhile

E D E D E D E
oh my lady , yeah 3
