Intro
RE SIm RE
All work no play may have made Jack a dull boy
SIm RE
But all work no God has left Jack with a lost soul
RE
But he's moving on full steam
SIm RE
He's chasing the American dream
SIm
And he's gonna give his family finer things

Not this time son I've no time to waste

Maybe Tomorrow we'll have time to play

And then he slips into his new BMW
SIm MI
And drives farther and farther and farther away

'Cause he works all day and tries to sleep at night
MI SOL RE
He says things will get better; better in time
Chorus
RE SOLm SIm
'Cause he works and he builds with his own two hands
RE SOLm SIm
And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand

But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in

Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
RE SIm SOLm
His kingdom stands

Another wasted weekend

It'll just take a little more time

Verse 3
RE SIm
He used to say, "Who ever died with the most toys wins."

But if he loses his soul, what has he gained in the end

I'll take a shack on a rock

Over a castle in the sand

It's not getting any better
Looks like he's running out of time

All they really wanted was you
