A

Well you work and you slave

D9

And you spend all day in your thankless job

A D9

Hey... that's what it's all about

A D9

Hey... this is the life I couldn't live without

D9

No I couldn't live without

F#m

It's a moment frozen there in time

E

Where the reasons all begin to rhyme

A

Where love's a little bigger

D9 E

And you finally start figuring out

A D9

That's what it's all about

A

Well they won't go to bed

D9

Or do what you said or eat their food

A

They cry and they fuss and you can't cuss

D9

Cause they'll say it too

A A/G#

You're tired and you're numb and you're stressed and you're mad

A/F# A/E

And she smiles and says 'I love you, Dad'
