A man once said that the pinnacle of success

Is when you've finally lost interest
C Em F G
In money, compliments, and publicity

A noble enough idea, I supposeea
F Gii.
How on earth he does this, heaven only knows
C Em
I know I need a lot more of all three of those
F G
Before I ever have the nerve to turn up my nose
C Em F G
At any money, compliments, and publicity
C# G
I'm broke as the Ten Commandments
F G
Sometimes I'm harder to follow
C Em
I don't know whether to walk to school
F G
Or take my lunch, should've worn my watch, it's true
C Em
You may think you see a man who is looking for attention,
F G
But you're looking at a man who has lived
C
Through a little bit of poverty,
Em F G
Some anxiety, some scrutiny
C Em
If I ever do get my money together,
F G
I'm gonna take care of all of my friends
C
Buy an island, run a phone line, call 'em
Em F (stop)
Tell 'em all to get f**ked
F C
Oh! That oughta take care of them
Em
Just be me and my money,
F G
And my compliments, and my publicity
C Em F G
Sing it with me: "money, compliments, and publicity"

A man once said that the pinnacle of success
F G
Is when you've finally lost interest
C Em F G

C Em
Many years later, another man would say all that again
F G
But not for the sake of inspiring men
C
But rather 'cause he got nine songs
Em
And knows he needs at least ten
F G
Before he can go back to town and turn 'em all in
C Em F G
To get money--you guessed it--compliments, publicity
C Em F G
Money, compliments, and publicity
C Em F G
Lord, I'm gonna take it to the bank
C Em F G
I said money, I love the compliments and the publicity
C Em F G
I got so many people to thank
C Em F G
I wanna thank Clive Davis
C Em F G
I wanna thank the Good Lord up in heaven above
C Em F G
And all my fans for my money, my compliments, and my publicity

Money, compliments, and publicity
C Em F G
Lord, I would bathe in

Money, compliments, and publicity
