  The weak ones fade
Cm9     F9                       Cm9           F7
  Empty pockets, well they don't ever make the grade

  When you got money, you've got lots of friends
Am                        Ammaj7         Am7  Am6 Ebm7
  They're always hanging 'round your door
Dm                           Dmmaj7            Dm7          Dm6
  But when their money's all gone, and they're spending ends
Am7b5                D7b9        Gm7  N.C. C7#9
They don't come around   much anymore

  Rich relations give
Fmaj7                  Bbm7 Bb6 Eb7sus4 Eb7
  A crust of bread and such
Cm9                F9             Cm7                 F7#9
  You can help yourself but you'd better not take too much, no
 
Bbmaj7           Db/Eb    Eb13 Eb7
  Mama may have, papa may have
    Am7           D7b9        Gm7        N.C.
But God bless the child who's got his own
C7#9          Fmaj7
Who's got his own
