[Verse 1]
Em G
The things I do for money, I'll never understand
C Bm
I used to be quite critical but now I find I'm cynical
Em G
A lady with a starving baby miles away from me
C
No problems there, just life and death
Bm
What the hell is wrong with me
Em G C Bm
And everybody else
[Verse 2]
Em
No questions asked
G
Just get receipts and write them off
C Bm
Expenses - taxes are a bitch these days
Em
Yet the lady and the baby starve while
G C
Waiting for a contribution in a UNICEF box
Bm Em G C Bm
In a drugstore in this ugly little town
[Chorus]
Em
The things I do for money
G
I'll never understand
C
The world is just a marble
Bm Em
In the palm of my hand
G C
The palm of my hand
Bm Em G C Bm
The palm of my hand
Em
The things I do for money
G
I'll never understand
C
The world is just a marble
Bm Em G C Bm Em G C Bm
In the palm of my hand
[Verse 3]
Em G
The things I waste my time on, I'll never understand
C Bm
I used to be quite practical but now I find I'm tactical
Em
I scrape and scheme and struggle hard
G
To get myself ahead
C Bm Em G C Bm
Have no concern for anyone but me
[Chorus]
Em
The things I do for money
G
I'll never understand
C
The world is just a marble
Bm Em
In the palm of my hand
G C
The palm of my hand
Bm Em
The palm of my hand
G C
The palm of my hand
Bm Em
The palm of my hand
[solo]
Em G C Bm [4X]
[Chorus]
Em
The things I do for money

I'll never understand
C
The world is just a marble
Bm Em G C Bm
In the palm of my hand
