Mansion in the Slums Crowded House
[Am]than a [G]mansion in the[F] slums [Am] [G] [D/F#] [F] [Am] [G] [F]
Am G D/F#* F
I'd much rather have a caravan in the hills
[Am]than a [G]mansion in the[F] slums
the [Am]taste of suc[G]cess only [D/F#]lasts you
half an [F]hour or less [Am]
but it [G]loves you when it [F]comes
and you [F]laugh at yourself
while you're [G]bleeding to death [Am]
I'd much rather have a trampoline in my front room
than an isolation tank
I wish I was a million miles away
from the manager's door
there is trouble at the bank
you [F]laugh at yourself
as you go [G]deep into debt
[G]laugh at yourself
while he's [G]breathing down your neck [Am]
[Em]who can stop me
with money in my pocket
sometimes I get it free
the best of both [C]worlds
the best of both [Em]worlds [Am] [Bbm] [Bm] [C] [D]
(Instr. break uses chords from the verse)
[F]I'd much rather have a caravan in the hills
I'd much rather have a [Am]mansio[G]n ..[D/F#]. in the [F]hills
[Am]than a [G]mansion in the [F]slums
yeah I'd [Am]much rather...
[G]what I mean is, [D/F#]would you mind if [F]I had it all [Am]
I'll [G]take it when it [F]comes
and you [F]laugh at yourself
while you're [G]bleeding to death
and [F]somebody else is always
[G]breathing down your neck
[F]laugh at yourself
while he's [G]hanging over your head
