Corrections welcome
I've included the chords and tabbed the riff used in the intro and as the
instrumental break. Eventually I'll tab the remainder of the song. Cheers
Intro G#m - Includes riff below
1st Verse
B
Years of blind devotion
G#m
Shameless self promotion
B G#m
A million miles in this Chevy van

It’s been a lovely deconstruction
G#m
A winding road to nothing

My feet have never left the ground
E F# B
I was working my way down
2nd Verse
B
Took one step up the ladder
G#m
Tried to dress so dapper

Guess I’m not a company man

Seen enough consolidation

Livin’ in a pink slip nation

They can keep their noses brown
E F# B
I’ll be working my way down
Chorus

Working my way down the highway

Barely getting by but I’ve got it made

Playin’ my guitar in town after town

Working my way down

B
I ain’t no three-piece suiter
G#m
But don’t call me a loser

Cause I could steal your woman for a song

Like Elvis leavin’ Tupelo

When I hit the radio

I won’t be turnin’ around

I’ll be working my way down

Working my way down the highway

Working my way
