Making A Life

G
Waitress in a pink dress, works before the sun's up
G Am
Barely pays the rent, pouring coffee into coffee cups
G
To wake the truck drivers up
G
Then out on the interstate. he's out in a traffic grind
G Am
Got to keep the rig safe cause he's got a family to keep in mind
D
And man that's the bottom line
Chorus:
C G
Getting by making the ends meet
D G
Do what it takes to stay on their feet
C G
Not gonna give up, not gonna give in
D Em
Making a life, not just a living
D G
Making a life, not just a living
In an office building downtown, he's wearing a suit and tie
He could make more money if he wasn't such an honest guy
But some things money can't buy
In a flower shop downstairs, she'll close it up early today
She might lose some business but there's no price she wouldn't pay
To see her daughter's part in the play
Chorus
B Em
And the flowers on the dashboard are hangin' low
B Em A
Life's burning like a flashbulb but dying slow - dying slow
Chorus
