[G] Let them write [C] about the [G] stars [Cm] above, and [Gb] the [Eb] moon up in [Bb] the sky.
[Eb] [F] There's one [Ab] thing I know, [Eb] [Gm] besides that you [Bb] don't have a thing.

[Gm] [F] Sweet talk comes easy, [Gm]
sometimes [F] it's gonna get you by.
[Bb] Love is a five-letter [C] word spelled [F] M-O-N-E-Y.
You got to [Gm] have bread, [G] [Bb] [F] that's what I said.
You [C] got to have dough, [G] got [C] to have dough, [F] baby, don't you [Bb] know.
[Ebm] [Gb]
[Bb] [F] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, [G] yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
