[Intro]
F
Dad, how come you or Mom can't pay for me to goon my band trip to the Rose Bowl Parade?
Don't you make a ton of money?
C I don't know about that, but we do have a ton of expenses F Like what? Isn't there something here we can do without?
[Verse 1]
F We could stop buying groceries Gm But that might be a mistake Bb C7 F 'Cause eating is a habit I'd be loath to try and break F We could stop paying income tax Gm Bb But they might send me to jail and if we don't pay the mortgage
Then they'll take our house
C7 F Then where would we get our mail?
[Chorus]
Bb If not for all these bills and taxes, F Our income would more than suffice Gm G7 C7 I'd feel like a real big cheese until everybody takes a slice! Bb And I don't want to bore you F With my troubles or my woes Gm C7 F Still you're old enough to know where the money goes
[Verse 2]
F We don't have to pay for furniture Gm If you want to learn upholstering Bb We don't really need to pay the phone bill C7 F We can use tin cans and a string (It's bedtime!) F We'd never have to pay to paint the house Gm Bb If we went off and lived in a cave and if you're planning on inheriting a million bucks C7 F Then there's really no need to save!
[Chorus]
Bb F We make a decent living, that's true, Gm G7 C7 But we have to pay these bills when they come due Bb Gm D7 Please observe this illustration which irrefutably shows C7 F Exactly how and where the money goes
[Bridge]
F
You know if you could help us cut down on some of these expenses,I bet we could save enough for you to go on that trip
C7
What could I do?[Verse 3]
F We could really lower the phone bill Gm If you'd limit the length of your calls (Bye!) Bb You could probably put some money in your savings bank C7 F If you skip one trip to the mall F We'd spend a little less on electricity Gm Bb If you turn off the lights when you leave and we could save a lot on our laundry bills C7 F If you'd watch where you put your sleeve!
[Chorus]
Bb You could bring a little in with a part-time job Gm All we ask is you do your best Bb If you earn a little here and save a little there G7 C7 We'll try to come up with the rest Bb We can't stop the money from trickling out Gm D7 Bb C7 But we can control how it flows and we can start by being aware of F Where the money goes
[Outro]
C Where is my money? My money! F It's gone
