G           Bm
Here is the money that I owe you
G           Bm
Yes you can pay the bills
G       Bm
I will give you more
       C              Em
When I get paid again


G            Bm
I hate those people who love to tell you
G            Bm
Money is the root of all that kills
G          Bm
They have never been poor
           C                     Em
They have never had the joy of a welfare christmas
G
I know we will never look back


- repeat Verse  progression -
You say you wake up crying
Yes and you don’t know why
You get up and you go lay down
Inside my baby’s room


Yeah, I guess I’m doing ok
I moved in with the strangest guy
Can you believe he actually thinks
That I am really alive

Chorus:
G      B7           Em
I will buy you a garden
             C
Where your flowers can bloom
G      B7            Em
I will buy you a new car
         C
Perfect shiny and new
G      B7               Em
I will buy you that big house
       C
Way up in the west hills
G      B7             C
I will buy you a new life
C
Yes I will


- repeat Verse progression -
Yes, I know all about that other guy
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the time before
With that obsessive little rich boy


They might make you think you’re happy
Yeah maybe for a minute or two
They can’t make you laugh
No they can’t make you feel the way that I do

Chorus:
G      B7           Em
I will buy you a garden
             C
Where your flowers can bloom
G      B7            Em
I will buy you a new car
         C
Perfect shiny and new
G      B7               Em
I will buy you that big house
       C
Way up in the west hills
G      B7             C
I will buy you a new life
G      B7             C
I will buy you a new life


I know we can never look back


G
Will you please let me stay the night
G
Will you please let me stay the night
G
No one will ever know

Chorus - 2x -:
G      B7           Em
I will buy you a garden
             C
Where your flowers can bloom
G      B7            Em
I will buy you a new car
         C
Perfect shiny and new
G      B7               Em
I will buy you that big house
       C
Way up in the west hills
G      B7             C
I will buy you a new life


I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life
