C 
Marble halls and chandeliers 
Vestibules and souveniers 
G 
Vanity like a treasure chest 
C 
Silverware for a hundred guests 
F 
If you think it might leave you satisfied 
C                                 Am    G 
If this is your idea of a perfect life 
     C 
Take mine 

C 
Recognition in a paved drive way 
Good manners and bad fruit cake 
G 
Socializing with the socialites 
C 
Wasting all my saturday nights 
F 
All these precious things money can't buy 
C                                           Am    G 
If you wanna know what these privileges are like 
     C 
Take Mine 

                G 
I'm looking for highly understated little downgraded 
C 
They don't make 'em like they used too 
G 
Rough around the edges nothing too impressive 
C 
Bona fide eye tribute 
F            
I'd rather hang around some sleepy little town 
C                    Am 
With a taste for the unrefined 
                   C           G 
So if you want the high life 
     C 
Take mine 

C 
Groundskeeper and a maitredee 
Probably won't even ever miss me 
G 
Big parties and promenades 
C 
I never really liked to dance anyway 
F 
All these precious things don't satisfy 
C                                           Am   G 
If you think happiness is what you're gonna find 
     C 
Take mine
