All work no play may have made Jack a dull boy
But all work no God has left Jack with a lost soul
DBut he's moving on full steam
Bm DHe's chasing the American dream
And he's gonna give his family finer things
D Bm x2
verse 1
D Bm DNot this time son I've no time to waste
Maybe Tomorrow we'll have time to play
Bm DAnd then he slips into his new BMW
Bm EAnd drives farther and farther and farther away
Pre-chorus 1
E G D'Cause he works all day and tries to sleep at night
E G DHe says things will get better; better in time
ChorusD Gm Bm
'Cause he works and he builds with his own two hands
D Gm BmAnd he pours all he has in a castle made with sand
But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in
D Gm D D Bm GmTime will tell just how long his kingdom stands
D Bm GmHis kingdom stands
Verse 2
D BmHis American dream is begining to seem
D BmMore and More like a nightmare
with every passing day
Bm"Daddy, can you come to my game?"
D"Oh Baby, please don't work late."
Another wasted weekend
EAnd they are slipping away
Pre-Chorus 2
E G D'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night
E GHe tells them things will get better
It'll just take a little more time
Verse 3
He used to say, "Who ever died with the most toys wins."
D BmBut if he loses his soul, what has he gained in the end
DI'll take a shack on a rock
Over a castle in the sand
Pre-chorus 3
E G DNow he works all day and cries alone at night
E GIt's not getting any better
Looks like he's running out of time
Outro
All they really wanted was you
DAll they really wanted was you
DAll they really wanted was you
