[Verse 1]
D
When I get to heaven

                       G                   D
And we’re linend up outside the pearly gates.

                A
But we're all walking, small talking, mingling

            G                   D    G D
I already know what I'm gonna say

D
When we all trade stories

         G                Bm7
Of what we did with our lives

         A
I won't say that I played music or could sing

                               Em
When it's my turn I think I'll smile
[Chorus]
             G          A             D
Say I was the richest man in the world

      Bm              G
Father to a baby girl

         A                  D
And two boys that I know loved me

G        A             Bm
 Famous to a few good friends

      D/F#               G
And beside me ’till the end

        A              D
Was my wife who is so lovely

       Em                   D           G
And I don't know who could ask for any more

                              D    G
I'm the richest man in thе world

                         D
Richest man in the world
[Verse 2]
       D                       D
I may nеver live in Montecito

               G            D
I'll probably never own a jet

              A                                     A
The sands of time will wear down all the fame and fortune

        G                  D    G  D
Till I don't have any left

        D                     D
I don't want some great big funeral

                G           Bm7
I don't want flowers on my grave

                A
Just play this song or have someone write this somewhere

                           Em
I'd like to let the record state
[Chorus]
             G         A              D
Here lies the richest man in the world

       Bm            G
Father to a baby girl

         A                 D
And two boys that I know loved me

G          A               Bm
Was famous to a few good friends

       D/F#              G
And beside me til the end

       A               D
Was my wife who is so lovely

       Em                   D            G
And I don't know who could ask for any more

                                 D  G
I'm the richest man in the world

                              D  G  D  G  D
The richest man in the world
[Bridge]
        Em7                   Bm                A
You can spend your whole life wanting what you don't have

            Em7             Bm                A
But you can find the beauty in the things you do
[Chorus]
           G           A            D
So I am the richest man in the world

       Bm            G
Father to a baby girl

        A                  D

Is my wife who is so lovely

       Em                    D            G
