[C#m]
[F#] This white flesh [E] of mine, [C#m]
I don't [C#] [E] know.
[C#m]
[F#] This flesh of [C#m]
mine, I don't [E] know.
[C#m]
Here I am in New York, [E] yeah.
[C#m]
See that girl, bold and fair.
Who's in your white pack today?
[E] [C#m]
Will it take my blues away?
[E] [C#m]
That's okay, [E] you gotta run.
[C#m] Jacket, I don't need you [G#m] to have some fun.
[E] [C#m]
[E] Coming from a land of snow,
[C#m]
I guess I'm kinda [G#m] used to [E] cold.
But one [C#m] day I'll have a big white mansion
[C#] [C#] at the top of the [F#] world.
[F#m] I'm gonna wear the [C#m] latest fashion.
[F#] [F#m] I'm gonna be happy, don't you [E] know?
I [C#m]
could use a new guitar.
Sing a tune [E] at Jazz's bar.
[C#m]
Maybe meet [B] at Debbie's [C#m] tavern.
Be a toy, do what you want.
Nine [G#m] o'clock to see John Kay.
But you don't rock, come another [C#] day.
Come another [E] day.
[C#m]
School is [C#m] so low, reaching up for ground.
One day I'm gonna make it in this lonely [F#] town.
And [C#m] I'm gonna have a big white [E] mansion
[C#] at the top of the [B] world.
[F#] [C#m] I'm gonna wear the latest fashion.
[F#] [C#m] And I'll be happy, don't you [E] know?
[A] I'm looking there, what's your name?
[E] [D]
Can [C#m] you tell me how to play the game?
[E]
Do I really have to cut my hair?
Now that's a cross I [G#m] could never bear.
How about the publishing rights?
[E] Summer publishing, what a laugh.
[C#m] I don't know ball, but [E] I do know math.
[C#m]
Back to [C#m] Minneapolis, there you go.
You can't find your house underneath the [F#m] snow.
Cause you're living in a big white [E] mansion
[C#] at the top of the world.
[C#] You can wear the latest [E] fashion.
[C#m] I'm gonna be happy, don't you [E] know?
I'm gonna [F#] make you happy, [C#m] happy.
Big [F#] white mansion, big white mansion
[C#m] at the top of the [E] world.
[C#] You [C#m] be wearing the [F#] latest fashion.
Who cares, who [C#m] cares?
[E] They all wanna do me.
But if I really [F#m] have to be big [E] white mansion.
Maybe one day.
