E MajorE
When success is equated with excess
E MajorE
The ambition for excess wrecks us
E MajorE
As top of the mind becomes the bottom line
E MajorE
When success is equated with excess
E MajorE
If your time ain't been nothing for money
E MajorE
I start to feel really bad for you, honey
E MajorE
Maybe honey, put your money where your mouth's been running
E MajorE
If your time ain't been nothing but money
A augmentedA BB

I want to live and die for bigger things
F# minorF#m BB
I'm tired of fighting for just me

E MajorE
When success is equated with excess
E MajorE
When we're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus
E MajorE
As the heart and soul breath in the company goals
E MajorE
Where success is equated with excess
A augmentedA BB C# minorC#m
I want out of this machine

It doesn't feel like freedom

F# minorF#m BB
I'm tired of fighting for just me
BB E MajorE
This ain't my American dream
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
And talk has always been the cheapest thing
A augmentedA E MajorE BB
Is it true would you do what I want you to
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
If I show up with the right amount of bling?
D MajorD A augmentedA BB E MajorE
Yeah, you're just a puppet on a monetary string
A augmentedA BB
Maybe we've been caught singing
A augmentedA BB
Red, white, blue, and green
BB
But that ain't my America,
BB
That ain't my American dream
E MajorE A augmentedA
This ain't my American dream
E MajorE A augmentedA
I want to live and die for bigger things
