[Verse 1]
C G C G
Oh the price of gold is rising out of sight
G C D
And the dollar is in sorry shape tonight

What the dollar used to get us
G
Now won't buy a head of lettuce
A7 D7
No, the economic forecast isn't bright
G C G
But amid the clouds I spot a shining ray
C B7
I can even glimpse a new and better way
C
I've devised a plan of action

Worked it down to the last fraction
A7 D7 G
And I'm going into action here today
[Chorus]

I am going down to Washington, D.C.

I will tell some power broker

What they did for Iacocca
A D
Will be perfectly acceptable to me
G C G
I am changing my name to Chrysler
C B7
I am headed for that great receiving line
C
And when they hand a million grand out
G E7
I'll be standing with my hand out

Yes sir, I'll get mine
[Verse 2]

When my creditors are screaming for their dough

Where the endless streams of money seem to flow
G C G
I'll be glad to tell them what they can do

It's a matter of a simple form or two

It's not just remuneration, it's a liberal education!

Ain't you kind of glad that I'm in debt to you?
[Chorus]

I am going down to Washington, D.C.

[Verse 3]
C G C G
Since the first amphibian crawled out of the slime
G C G
We've been struggling in an unrelenting climb
D
We were hardly up and walking
G
before money started talking
A7 D7
And it's said that failure is an awful crime
G C G
Well, it's been that way a millenium or two
C B7
But now it seems that there's a different point of view:
C G E7
If you're a corporate titanic and your failure is gigantic
A7 D7 G
Down in Congress there's a safety net for you
[Chorus]
D G C G
I am changing my name to Chrysler

I'll be standing with my hand out
A7 D7 G
Yes sir, I'll get mine
