Intro: Am Bm - use ska rhythm
Drum fill transition
E5 / / (w/dist) "Pick it up!"
Verse 1: (use ska rhythm)
A
Keep both my eyes transfixed on the prize
D
A high-rise under blue skies my piece of the pie
A
There's a hole in my heart that I know how to fill
E
That's to light my cigarettes with a hundred dollar bill
A
It's all about cash flow the California dream
D
To make the grade you gotta make the green
A
My friend I'm the champion I've no time for losers
E
Never ask for nothing cuz' beggars can't be choosers
A5 C5 G5 A5 C5 D5 (2x)
Verse 2:
Lookin' out for number one's a full time occupation
I give to me myself and I my own salvation
Some people try to tell me God can save me from my sin
God can take a number and I'll pencil Him in
Busy o' so busy I got no time to search
My Sunday's are all booked I got no time for church
That's for those poor souls dry as a stone
God bless this child cuz' this child's got his own
Chorus:
A G C D(ii)
Oh, let my pride fall down, I'm a little man (2x)
Verse 3:
He who gets the most toys and dies is the winner
I'm livin' the high life with lobster tail dinners
My Lexus, my yaucht, my gold chains and rings
These are a few of my favorite things
But most of all I keep my billfold the closest to my heart
House decorated with million dollar works of art
Roll with the bigwigs they think I am the man
But then I stop and look and think about how big I really am
Chorus: 4x
Dist kicks in...
D5 G5 A5 }
D5 G5 B5 A5 } 2x
Then... G5 A5 8x
A5 C5 G5 A5 C5 D5 (2x)
Refrain: (play G5 A5 8x)
Mammon is an unforgiving God so I cast him away
I live my life to God, not to get paid
Money can never save soul and I don't think I can
I look to God and I fell like a little man
Chorus 4x (use power chords with dist.)
G A
