[Verse 1]
[G]Everyone's creeping up to the money [Em]god,[G]
Putting [Em]tongues where [G]they
did[F]n't ought [G]to [Em]be
[G]On stepping sto[C]nes of[G]
human hearts and souls,
Into the land of [Gsus4]"noth ing for[G] free"

[Verse 2]
Well the [F]way that we're liv[Em]ing,
[Am]Is all take [F]and [G]no giving,[Em][Am]
There's [F]nothing [G]to
[Em]believe in[G],[Am]
[F]The [G]loudest mouth will [Am]hail
[G]the new found [F]way,
To be king for [G]a day

[G]Everyone's [Em]licki[G]ng u[F]p to t[G]he new king pin,
[Em][G]
Trying to get way up with a smile
Sing for your supper boy and
jump to a finger click,
Ain't my way of living in style

[Verse 4]
'Cause the lad[F]der gets [Em]longer,
[Am]And ambi[F]tion gets [Em]stro[Am]nger,[Em]

[Verse 5]
[Am]
You're only here once so you
got to get it [E]right

'Cause life don't mean much if [Dm]measured
[Am]out [E]with someone else's plight
(In time you'll see the light)

[Verse 6]
'Cause the [F]way that [G]we're liv[Em]ing,[G]
[Am]Is all take [F]and [G]no g[F]iving,[Em][Am]
There's [F]not mush [G]to believe [Am]in,
[F]The loudest [G]mouth will [Am]hail
the [G]new found [F]way,
To be king for a [G]day[Em][G]
You got to be the [F]king [G]for a day, ah
[Em]To b[G]e king[Em] for a[G] day
