You grew high, taller than the middle class boy,
Cash running in your pockets

You skate high, gold on your finger tips
They try to make people nervous
Dm F
Something missing in your smile
Dm
Something missing in your soul
F
Are you suffering the blues?
Tell me why, tell my when, tell me why, when, why, when
Dm
Green dollar bills slipped your hand, little man
F
Anything you wanna come in-stant-ly
Dm
Boy, when the plan slipped your hand, little man
F
Anything you wanna come in-stant-ly

Castle, house, cars and the ladies blues,
no doubt, got you feeling empty
Dm F
Your bank's packed to edge and still you're sad
Dm F
Something missing in your smile
Dm
Something missing in your soul
F
Are you suffering the blues?
Tell me why, tell my when, tell me why, when, why, when, yeah
Dm
Green dollar bills slipped your hand, little man
