[Opening]
[Am] [F7] [Dm] [E7] [Am]
I [Am]work all night, I work all day
To [E7]pay the bills I have to pay, ain’t it [Am]sad.
And [Am]still there never seems to be
A [E7]single penny left for me, that’s too [Am]bad.
In my dreams I have a plan, [Am] [F]if I got me a wealthy man
I [Dm]wouldn’t have to work at all,
I’d [B7]fool around and have a ba[E7]all.
[chorus]
[Am]Money, money, money, [B7]must be funny,
[E7]In the [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
Money, money, money, [B7]always sunny,
[E7]In the [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
[chorus]
A [Dm]ha, a [E7]ha. [A7]All the things I could [Dm]do
[F]If [E7]I [Am]had a little money,
[Dm]It’s a [E7]rich man’s [Am]world. [F7]
[Dm]It’s a [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
[Closing]
A [Am]man like that is hard to find
But [E7]I can’t get him off my mind, ain’t it [Am]sad
And [Am]if he happens to be free
I [E7]bet he wouldn’t fancy me, that’s too [Am]bad
So I must leave, I’ll [Am]have to [F]go, to Las Vegas or Monaco
And [Dm]win a fortune in a game,
My [B7]life will never be the [E7]same…
[chorus]
[Am]Money, money, money, [B7]must be funny,
[E7]In the [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
Money, money, money, [B7]always sunny,
[E7]In the [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
[chorus]
A [Dm]ha, a [E7]ha. [A7]All the things I could [Dm]do
[F]If [E7]I [Am]had a little money,

[Dm]It’s a [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
[chorus]
[Am]Money, money, money, [B7]must be funny,
[E7]In the [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
Money, money, money, [B7]always sunny,
[E7]In the [E7]rich man’s [Am]world.
[chorus]
A [Dm]ha, a [E7]ha. [A7]All the things I could [Dm]do
[F]If [E7]I [Am]had a little money,
