Workin' at the Car Wash Blues Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][B][Em][G]
[C][G][Am][G][D]

[Verse 1]
Well, I had [G]just got out from the county prison
Doin' [D]ninety days for non-support
Tried to find me an executive position
But no matter how smooth I [G]talked
They wouldn't listen to the
fact that I was genius
The man say, "we [C]got all that we can [A]use"

[Chorus 1]
Now I got them [G]steadily de[B]pressin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Working [G]at the [Am]car wash [G]blues[D]

[Verse 2]
Well, I [G]should be sittin' in an air conditioned
[D]office In a swivel chair
Talkin' some trash to the secretaries
Sayin', "here, now mama, come on over [G]here"
Instead, I'm stuck here rubbin' these
fenders with a rag
And [C]walkin' home in soggy old [A]shoes

[Chorus 2]
With them [G]steadily de[B]pressin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Working [G]at the [Am]car wash [G]blues[D]

[Bridge 1]
You know a [C]man of my ability
He should be smokin' on a big ci[G]gar
But 'til I [C]get myself straight I guess I'll
just have to wait
In my [A]rubber suit rubbin' these [D]cars

[Verse 3]
Well, [G]all I can do is to shake my head
You [D]might not believe that it's true
For workin' at this end of Niagara Falls
Is an undiscovered Howard [G]Hughes
So baby, don't expect to see me
With no double martini in any
[C]high brow society [A]news

[Chorus 3]
'Cause I got them [G]steadily de[B]pressin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Working [G]at the [Am]car wash [G]blues[D]

[Solo 1]
[G][G][D][D]
[D][D][G][G]

[Pre-chorus 1]
So baby, [G]don't expect to see me
With no double martini in any
[C]high brow society [A]news

[Chorus 4]
'Cause I got them [G]steadily de[B]pressin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Working [G]at the [Am]car wash [G]blues
Yeah, [D]I got them s[G]teadily dep[B]ressin',
[Em]low down m[G]ind messin'
[C]Working [G]at the [Am]car wash [G]blues
