Em                                   C
 It's been two weeks since I've seen my kids
Em                                C
 'Cause my ex-wife won't take my calls
D  
 They changed my shift at work
Am
 It's getting cold and my shoulder hurts
     C                         Em   D
But here I am, copin' with it all

[Chorus]
G 
Dealin' with the traffic, reelin' from the fumes
D
Dealin with the everywhere I look bad news
      Am                                Em      D
And wonderin' how on earth I should be feelin'
      G
I'm dealin' with my taxes and my 401k
D
Dealin' with losin' more ground every day
     Am                           Em         D
And reachin' for a dream I still believe in
              Em        C
So I keep on dealin'

[Verse]
Em                                 C
 My best friend Joe just lost his mama
Em                              C
 And someone stole my sister's car
          D 
Oh but, they'll get by as long as there's
    Am
A thread of hope and a chain of prayer
   C                              Em    D
I know it's not been easy but so far

[Verse]
G
They're dealin' with the doctors, reelin' from the pain
D
Dealin' with the clouds and cursin' at the rain
       Am                                  Em      D
And wonderin' how on earth they should be feelin
G
Dealin' with the cost just to get from A to B
D
Dealin' with the crazies and the crime in the streets
      Am                             Em          D
And reachin' for a dream they still believe in
                 Em
So they keep on dealin'

[Break]  
Em C (x2)

[Bridge]
D
This Ol' world keeps turnin' around
     Am
The sun comes up and the sun goes down
        C                                   Em    
But it sure helps knowin' that you're not alone
        D
Cause everyone is

[Chorus]
G 
Dealin' witht the traffic, reelin' from the fumes
D
Dealin with the everywhere we look bad news
      Am                                Em      D
And wonderin' how on earth we should be feelin'
                  G
Yeah, I'm still dealin' with the creditors that I can't pay
D
Livin' on a vision of a brighter day
     Am                           Em         D
And reachin' for a dream I still believe in
              Em        
So I keep on dealin'

[Bridge]
      C                            Em
Oooooooh, well I'm gonna keep on dealin'
      C                 G    D
Oooooooh, yeah, yeah
                        Am     Em   D
Oh, I'm gonna keep on dealin
            G                 D       Am    Em    D
Yeah, I'm dealin', I'm just dealin', ooooooooh  
          Em      C
I'm just dealin'

[Outro]
                       Em           C
And I'm gonna keep on dealin'
               Em                                              C
And we're all dealin with the traffic, reelin from the fumes
Em  C  Em
