[A]I walked to NY and b[D]ack from L[A]A
I [A]lived on a mountain and o[D]nce by the b[A]ay
i [A]bought an apartment and I've s[D]lept in the [A]hay
but theres [E]no place thats softer than...
the [A]living today is just g[D]etting so b[A]ad
theres a [A]look on your face and it [D]says youve been [A]had
you can t[A]ake all my money but just d[D]ont make me m[A]ad
cause theres n[E]obody meaner than...
