Zillionaire chords by Zoe Mulford

• Difficulty: Intermediate

Key: E

Verse:
        A                              E
Oh, the millionaire is hardly worth a mention
    F#m                            C#
The billionaire is barely scraping by
         F#                  E
'Cause exclusive schools are steep
    A               F#m
And mansions need upkeep
     B                           E
And elections aren't cheep, poor guy
      A                      F#m
These days, if you aspire to succeed
         B                           E
You will need a greater magnitude of greed

Chorus:
A                        E
 Who wants to be a zillionaire?
E                        A
 Who wants to be a zillionaire?
  D                   A               F#
A million is passé, a billion's déclassé
         B          E               A
What you gotta be today, is a zillionaire

Verse:
   F#m                              C#
If you can make a thing with just a nickel
    F#m                          C#
Why sell a million of 'em, for a dime?
          B              E             A         F#m
'Cause if you can sell a million for a 20 dollar bill
             B                       E
You're doing fine, doing fine, doing fine
    F#m                                 C#
And if, in time your workers should get restless
   F#m                               C#
If they complain their nickel is not fair
             B                E             A              F#m
There's some place across the sea where the labor's nearly free!
           C#                        F#m
And that's how you get to be a zillionaire

Chorus:
A                        E
 Who wants to be a zillionaire?
E                        A
 Who wants to be a zillionaire?
  D                   A               F#
A million is passé, a billion's déclassé
         B          E               A
What you gotta be today, is a zillionaire

Verse:
F#m                                 C#
Look around the world, and all it's wonders
F#m                              C#
See where you can stick a dollar sign
          B                E                 A               F#m
'Cause if you can charge a fee for what they used to get for free
             B                       E
You're doing fine, doing fine, doing fine
        F#m                             C#
And the day that the consumer sees your logo
   F#m                             C#
On everything they eat or touch or wear
           B               E             A              F#m
If you can copyright their genes, if you even own their dreams
        C#                         F#m
Then my friend, you can be a zillionaire!

Outro:
        F#m                             C#
And the day you buy your ticket on that spaceship
     F#m                                C#
To escape the poisoned earth and rising sea
           B         E             A           F#m
There will be nobody there but the other zillionaires
      C#                             F#m
And I hope you like each others company
