She works hard for the money    (midi)

 

                  Em                                 D

She works hard for the money, so hard for it, honey,

                    C                                         D                   Em

she works hard for the money, so you better treat her right.

 

+ repeat CHORUS

 

          Em                                                               C              D          Em

1. Oh, let her there in the corner stand, and she wonders where she is,

                    C                              D                                       Em

    and it's strange to her, some people seem to have everything.

    Em                                                           C       D         Em

    Nine a.m. on the hour hand, and she's waiting for the bell,

                      C                                   D                         Em

    and she's looking real pretty, just waiting for her clientele.

 

+ CHORUS (2x)

 

       Em                                                                           C       D      Em

2. Twenty-eight years have come and gone and she' seen a lot of tears,

                C                                    D                                   Em

    of the ones who come in, they really seem to need her there.

            Em                                              C       D                          Em

    It's a sacrifice working day to day for little money, just tips for pay,

                  C                         D                                  Em

    but it's worth it all just to hear them say that they care.

 

+ CHORUS

 

C                         D                             Em

    She already knows she's seen her bad times,

C                         D                            Em

    she already knows these are the good times,

C                            D                    Am                 D

    she'll never sell out, she never will, not for a dollar bill.

 

    + CHORUS (4x) …….
