AmThe life I've always wanted I guess I'll never have 
        DmI'll be working for somebody else Until I'm in my grave
        F                              G            F            Am I'll be dreaming of a live of ease and mountains Oh mountains o' things 

AmTo have a big expensive car Drag my furs on the ground 
DmAnd have a maid that I can tell To bring me anything 
FEveryone will look at me with envy and with greed 
G                                 F            G            Am   I'll revel in their attention And mountains Oh mountains o' things 

AmSweet lazy life Champagne and caviar
Dm I hope you'll come and find me Cause you know who we are 
FThose who deserve the best in life And know what money's worth 
G                                          F            G          Am And those whose sole misfortune Was having mountains o' nothing at birth

  C             G                                   AmRenounce all Renounce all those material things you gained by 
F                G             AmExploiting other human beings 

AmConsume more than you need This is the dream 
DmMake you pauper Or make you queen 
FI won't die lonely I'll have it all prearranged   
G                                       F             G            Am   A grave that's deep and wide enough For me and all my mountains o' things 

        C       G                                       AmOh they tell me There's still time to save my soul They tell me 
  C             G                                   AmRenounce all Renounce all those material things you gained by 
F                G             AmExploiting other human beings 

G             F       AmMostly I feel lonely 
G                    F                 AmGood good people are   Good people are only My stepping stones 
G                      F                      AmIt's gonna take all my mountains o' things To surround me 
G           F            G                   F                   Am Keep all my enemies away Keep my sadness and loneliness at bay 


AmThe life I've always wanted I guess I'll never have 
        DmI'll be working for somebody else Until I'm in my grave
