{artist: Jim Croce}
[G]/ steadily de - [B7]/ pressin’, [Em]/ low down [G7]/ mind messin’
[C7]/ Working at the [D7]/ car wash [G] blues
{c: }
Well, I had [G] just got out from the county prison
Doin’ [D7] ninety days for non-support
[D7] Tried to find me an executive position
But no [G] matter how smooth I talked
[G] They wouldn’t listen to the fact that I was a genius
The man say, “We [C7] got all that we can [Am] use”
Now I got them [G]/ steadily de - [B7]/ pressin’,
[Em]/ low down [G7]/ mind messin’
[C7]/ Working at the [D7]/ car wash [G] blues
{c: }
Well, I [G] should be sittin’ in an air conditioned
[D7] Office in a swivel chair
[D7] Talkin’ some trash to the secretaries
Sayin’ [G] ”Hey now mama, come on over here”
[G] Instead, I’m stuck here rubbin’ these fenders with a rag
And [C7] walkin’ home in soggy old [Am] shoes
With them them [G]/ steadily de - [B7]/ pressin’,
[Em]/ low down [G7]/ mind messin’
[C7]/ Working at the [D7]/ car wash [G] blues
{c: }
You know a [C] man of my ability
He should be [C7] smokin’ on a big [G] cigar
But ‘till I [C] get myself straight I guess I’ll just have to wait
In my [A] rubber suit a-rubbin’ these [D7] cars
{c: }
Well, [G] all I can do is a shake my head
You [D7] might not believe that it’s true
[D7] For workin’ at this end of Niagara Falls
Is an [G] undiscovered Howard Hughes
[G] So baby, don’t expect to see me with no double Martini
In any [C7] high-brow society [Am] news
‘Cause I got them them [G]/ steadily de - [B7]/ pressin’,
[Em]/ low down [G7]/ mind messin’
[C7]/ Working at the [D7]/ car wash [G] blues
{c:Repeat previous verse }
Yeah I got them them [G]/ steadily de - [B7]/ pressin’,
[Em]/ low down [G7]/ mind messin’
[C7]/ Working at the [D7]/ car wash [G] blues
