Verse 1
E5 
Used to dream of being a millionaire,
without a care
C#5 
But if I'm seeing my dreams
and you aren't there
A5 
'Cause it's over,
E 
that just wont be fair, darlin'
E5 
Rather be a poor woman
livin' on the street, no food to eat
C#5 
'Cause I don't want no pie
if I have to cry
A5 
E 
'Cause it's over when you said goodbye
