When you’re playing the chords on verse, I sugest to play with
The same rithym of the intro, and the Bb and C above the
«M.T.V.» play just like the intro.
Gm7 C
Now look at them yo-yo’s that’s the way you do it
Gm7 Bb C
You play the guitar on the M.T.V.
Gm7
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
D]-3->s>-5—5—[
Money for nothin’ and chicks for free
(play the intro through this part:)
Now that ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Lemme tell ya them guys ain’t dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
Eb Bb
We gotta install microwave ovens
Eb F
Custom kitchen deliveries
Gm7*
We gotta move these refrigerators
C D E
We gotta move these colour TV’s
Gm7 C
See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup
Gm7 Bb C
Yeah buddy that’s his own hair
Gm7
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
F Gm7
That little faggot he’s a millionaire
Repeat chorus, play the intro again and chorus
