TITLE: This Is the Life
Lyrics and Chords


I eat filet mignon seven times a day
My bathtub's filled with Perrier
What can I say
This is the life

/ C C7 / F Fm / G7 F / C G / 

I buy a dozen cars when I'm in the mood
I hire somebody to chew my food
I'm an upwardly mobile dude
This is the life

... / C - /

   They say that money corrupts you
   But I can't really tell
   I got the whole world at my feet
   And I think it's pretty swell

   / Am - / F C / D - / G - /

I got women lined up outside my door
They've been waitin' there since the week before
Who could ask for more
This is the life

   You're dead for a real long time
   You just can't prevent it
   So if money can't buy happiness
   I guess I'll have to rent it

Yeah, every day I make the front page news
No time to pay my dues
I got a million pairs of shoes
This is the life

   I got a solid gold Cadillac
   I make a fortune while I sleep
   You can tell I'm a living legend
   Not some ordinary creep

No way, I'm the boss, the Big Cheese
Yeah, I got this town on its knobby little knees
I can do just what I please
This is the life

That's right, I'm the king, number one
I buy monogrammed Kleenex by the ton
I pay the bills, I call the shots
I grease the palms, I buy the yachts
One thing I can guarantee
The best things in life, they sure ain't free
It's such a thrill just to be me
This is the life
Wa-a, this is the life

/ C C7 / F Fm / : / G7 F / A - / F G C - /
