 Intro: C.  

 C 
 Singin' for my supper, so we're eating Mr. Noodles 
                G                          C 
 Watchin' other cats walk along the window sill. 
          C  
 With our mattress on the floor and our records in the cartons, 
                 G                         C 
 Dreamin' of the country, running from the bills. 

 Chorus 1:  
     F                 C               F             C 
  If reading books was money, spinning records was investing  
     F               C        G            C  
  If drinking was consulting, baby we'd be rich  

 Goin' on a picnic, rollin' in the grass now 
 The age of miracle and wonder, we're just trying to get our kicks 
 I would spend my last ten dollars, buy us both tequilas, 
 Leave the power company waiting, no minutes on my phone 

 Chorus 1,then: 

  If dreaming made us money, if singing was investing, 
  If smoking it was saving, baby we'd be rich 

    Bridge: 
               C                   F 
    I'm gettin higher, I'm getting higher,  
                G                     C  
    I'm getting higher and higher and higher 

 Movin' to the country, plantin' us a garden, 
 I'm cooking up the beans, was thinkin' bout some kids 
 I been thinkin' lately, it's just you and me baby, 
 even if we're dancin, on the margins of the skids 

 Chorus 1, then: 

  You been reading books, I've been spinning records, 
  We've been drinking all night...baby, we are rich!
