[Eb] [Ab]
[Eb]
The day is short, [Ab] the night is [Bb] long.
[Eb] Why [Bb] do [Eb] we work [Ab] so hard [Bb] to get [Bb] what we don't [Eb] even want?
[C]
[Eb] We work so hard to [F] get ahead of the game,
[Eb] work half our lives [Ab] until [Gm] we've won.
[Eb] And then one day, [Cm] we sit on the edge of our bed and we think,
[Bb] Lord, why [F] [Eb] [F]
[Eb] do [Bb] we [Ebm] work so [Eb] hard to get [Ab] what we don't [Eb] [Bb] even want?
Why
[Eb] do we work [Ab] so [Gm] hard to get what we don't [Eb] even want?
[Gm]
[Eb] Man in a suit comes [F] home and kisses his [Bb] babies goodbye.
[Eb] Daddy's gotta go on a trip, honey.
Oh, [Bb] no, don't you cry.
[Eb] He's gone for a week [Cm] and then he's home for [Ab] a day.
[Bb] Well, pretty soon the babies won't cry when daddy's gone away.
[Eb] The day is short, the [Ab] [Eb] night [Fm] is long.
[Gm] [Eb] Why [D] do you work [Ab] so hard [Eb] to get what you [Bb] don't even [Eb] want?
Now, listen [F] to this.
[Eb] You know we go to the [Cm] mall and we go from [F] store to [Bb] store.
Yeah.
[Eb] Everybody seems to be wasting time until death [Ab] walks through the door.
And then you look [G] at all of your [Cm] merchandise and you see,
[Eb] we pay too [Bb] high a price.
[Eb] You'll see.
[Db] The day [Bb] [Eb] is short, the [Ab] night [Bb] is long.
[N]
