Government Centre

you know, we have a lot of hard work to do today
what might that be Jonathan?

Intro: 
Well we've got [A] alot alot of hard [D] work today
We gotta rock at the government [E] center
[A] To make the secretaries feel [E] better
When they put those [E] stamps on the [A] letters

And they got alot alot of great desks and chairs
Now, at the government center
Where they put the stamps on all the letters
And then they write it down in the ledger

We gotta rock-a rock-a rock-a nonstop tonight
Uh huh, at the government center
Where they put the stamps on the letters
And then they write it down in the ledger

We [A] won't stop until we see secretaries smile
And see some [D] office boys jump up for [A] joy
Tell [D] old Mr. Ayhern, "Calm down a while,
You know that's the [E] only way the center is ever gonna get better"

(verse chords again)
We gotta rock-a rock-a rock-a nonstop tonight
At the government center
Where they put the stamps on the letters
And then they write it down in the ledger
