I should be knocking on the door of the pearly gates
Why keep a poor man alive in a job he hates
Am7                              g       Bm           Csus2
I've heard that good things will come to he who waits
Am7                     g            d     Csus2
I should be riding on a float in the hit parade
Instead of sitting on the curb behind the barricade
Am7                  g       Bm     Csus2
Another verse in the doormat serenade

          g         Am7 Fsus2 C5
Won't you put me on top
won't you put me on top, or change the odds
won't you put me on top
      g              Bm          Em            Csus2
or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box
g   Bm   Em Csus2

Am7                     g               Bm           Csus2
There's a remote on the shelf, but it's out of reach
