Lyrics

((G))Tum ble out of bed and I stum ble to the kit chen, ((C))pour my self a cup of am bi tion and yawn and stretch and try to come to life.

((G))Jump in the shower and the blood starts pump ing, ((C))out on the streets the traf fic starts jump ing with folks like me on the job from nine to five.

Work ing (C)nine to five.

What a way to make a liv ing.

Bare ly get ting by, it’s all tak ing and no giv ing.

They just use your mind and they nev er give you cre dit.

It’s e (A)nough (Bm7)to drive (A7)you (D)cra zy if you let it.

(C)Nine to five

for ser vice and de vo tion you would think that I would de serve a fair pro mo tion.

Want to move a head but the boss won’t seem to let me.

I (A)swear (Bm7)some times that (A7)man is out to get me.

About β€œNine To Five”

Is the engraved accompaniment score for "Nine To Five" suitable for a pianist?
Yes β€” both hands are notated in classic piano notation (treble + bass clefs, key G, real chord symbols), engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML. A staff pianist or accompanist can read this directly from the screen or printed PDF and play the backing while you sing the melody.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Nine To Five" by Dolly Parton in?
The backing track is in G at 100 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones β€” the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Nine To Five" with this accompaniment?
Yes β€” that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Nine To Five"?
Effectively yes β€” it's the piano-only backing for "Nine To Five", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Nine To Five" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work β€” the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
Can I download the accompaniment for "Nine To Five"?
Yes β€” registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.
Who wrote "Nine To Five"?
"Nine To Five" was originally performed by Dolly Parton. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
What other backing tracks by Dolly Parton are available?
Other accompaniments by Dolly Parton: "Blue Smoke", "Coat Of Many Colors", "Here You Come Again". Same toggle-the-melody, change-the-key setup.
What is this accompaniment Sheet Music view?
Same engraver-grade rendering as the standard Sheet Music mode β€” both hands, classic piano notation, key of G, real chord symbols β€” but the audio is the karaoke / backing-track arrangement of "Nine To Five" with the lead melody removed. Perfect for singers, lead instruments, and ensemble practice.
Can I sing or play melody while the score follows along?
Yes. The backing track removes the melody so you can sing or play it on top while the chord changes and rhythm guide you. The engraved score scrolls in time with the audio so you never lose your place.
Is this the same notation a piano book would show?
Yes β€” treble + bass clefs, key signature, time signature, beams, dynamics, and chord symbols above the staff, all rendered from the original publisher MusicXML. Identical reading experience to a printed piano accompaniment book.
