[Verse 1]
                        B
I don't want to be a billionaire
                     F#
I just want a comfy place to live
                             B
With friends and neighbors always around
                           F#
They never call me just to walk on in
                          B
The doors and windows ain't ever locked
                         F#
Because I don't have any shit to steal
                     B
Just a couple comfy chairs to sit
                     E       A  E
And a pot to cook a family meal

[Chorus]
   F#                   Gdim
So close your eyes and cover up your ears
G#m                              C#
This ain't the message that you came to hear but
E
I can't help it if I just don't care
Em6
I don't want to be a billionaire

[Verse 2]
                             B
I'm tired of hearin about the IPO
                              F#
All of the ways that all the cash could flow
                              B
It would be nice if it would trickle down
  B7                         E
To the people on the other side of town
                                  B
But something tells me that it prbobably wont'
                                F#
Cause somethin tells me that is juts ain't right
                        B
Takin' donations for the 1%
                          E      A E
Out of the pockets of the 99

[Chorus]
   F#                   Gdim
So close your eyes and cover up your ears
G#m                              C#
This ain't the message that you came to hear but
E
I can't help it if I just don't care
Em6
I don't want to be a billionaire

[Post Chorus]
B     F#
No I dont
B       E   Em6
No Oh Oh I dont
B       F#           E      B
I dont wanna be a billionaire

[Bridge]
F#
I don't want to sacrifice my life trying to
E                       B
shave 5 seconds off a checkout line
F#
thinkg of something that the whole world needs
E                   B
faster fast food delivery
F#
I don't want to be foced to guess
E                         B
what to do with all of my excess
C#                                  G#m
take vacataions into outer space
F#         F#/E  F#/D#      F#/C#    F#
Pay all schoolteachers a living wage

[Verse 3]
                       B
I know nothings gonna come from this
                                  F#
Except for make a couple people pissed
                               B
It ain't effective, far as I can tell
                             E
Telling the devil he should go to hell
                         B
And I don't even know who's to blame
                               F#
Or who's been marching in the hit parade
                            B
But I don't really want to sing along
                        E             A   E
If a computer wrote the fuckin' song

[Chorus]
   F#                   Gdim
So close your eyes and cover up your ears
G#m                              C#
This ain't the message that you came to hear but
E
I can't help it if I just don't care
Em6
I don't want to be a billionaire

[Outro]
B     F#
No I dont
B       E   Em6
No Oh Oh I dont
B       F#           E      B
I dont wanna be a billionaire
B     F#
No I dont
B       E   Em6
No Oh Oh I dont
B       F#           E      B
I dont wanna be a billionaire
B
