     G6                C11
Them that's got, shall get
G6             C11
   Them that's not, shall lose
G9        Dm(maj7)   Dm7
   So the Bible said

        Mama may have
 
And Papa may have
Bm7      E7
     God bless the child

A-a-a-nd the strong seem to get more
G6            Cll
    While the weak one's fade
G9        Dm(maj7)      Dm7
    Empty pockets don't
     G9
Ever make the grade       ^ ^    ^
Cmaj7                    Cmaj7  F9
     'Cause mama may have
 
And papa may have
Bm7          E7
     But god bless the child

    And when you've got money
G/D                C7
    You've lots of friends
Bm7                   Bm7/A       G6
     They're crowding around your door
Em                   Eb+5
    When the money's gone
    G/D               C7
And all your spending ends

     They won't be around any more
   Dsus4      D
No-oh   no no no

And rich relations may give you
G6            Cll
   A crust of bread and such
G9         Dm(maj7)      Dm7
   You can help yourself
           G9
But don't take too much      ^ ^   ^
