Quit Your Day Job

F#m A E B

When I was younger I knew that my father
       E                       B
Wasn’t happy but I didn’t know why
F#m                  A
Now that I’m older I understand the burden
        E                                B
that he shouldered and the world that he tried to defy
F#m                 A                      E
I would be lying if I said it wasn’t terrifying
              B
To put myself out there and try
F#m                      A
I know what I’m meant to do, but I want to do right by
E                        B
You deserve more than enough to scrape by
          D                A
There are ways in life to make it
                  C#m            F#m
Then there’s your way in life to make
       D             A
How am I supposed to know
              C#m
Which path to take?

And she said,
    A
“If you don’t do this
                         B       C#
you’ll regret it for the rest of your life
     A
It’s time to shut up, take a seat
              B    C#
and listen to your wife
       A                              C#      B
‘Cause I don’t wanna be married to an unhappy man”

                         A
“You’ve gotta quit your day job
                       E
While you’ve got the chance
                C#m
To chase your dreams
                    B
Don’t be afraid to dance
                          A
Without the devil on your shoulder;
                  E
He’s holding you back
                  C#m
But only if you let him
B
Hold on to what you believe in"

F#m                   A
I’m getting tired of daydreams
         E                     B
‘Cause I know the dreams could be reality
F#m                    A
I’d rather be swimming upstream
                 E                B
Than drowning in downstream monotony
     D              A
If I don’t take the leap
           C#m
‘Cause the fall is long
        F#m
And the road is steep
     D                       A
Am I wasting what I’ve been given?
         C#m
Throwing dirt in the blood, call it cheap?

And she said,
    A
“If you don’t do this
                         B       C#

       A                              C#      B
‘Cause I don’t wanna be married to an unhappy man”
