D D
I've got a sheet for my bed
and a pillow for my head;
I've got a pencil full of lead;
and some water for my throat
G G
I've got buttons for my coat; and sails on my boat
D D
So much more than I needed before
A A G G
I got money in the meter and a two bar heater
D D
Now it's getting hotter;
Oh it's only getting sweeter
I got legs on my chair and a head full of hair
Pot and a pan
And some shoes on my feet;
G G D D
I got a shelf full of books and most of my teeth
A A few pairs of socks and a door with a lock;
A A G G
I got food in my belly and a license for my telly
D D
And nothing's gonna bring me down
(musical solo – D D, G G, D D, A A, G G, D D)

D D
I got a nice guitar and tyres on my car
I got most of the means; and scripts for the scenes
G G
I'm out and about, so I'm in with a shout
D D
I got a fair bit of chat but better than that
A A G G
Food in my belly and a license for my telly
D D
and nothing's going to bring me down

(musical solo – D D, G G, D D, A A, G G, D D)
Nothing's gonna bring me down
D D
But best of all (best of all)
I've got my baby
G G
But best of all (best of all)
D D
I've got my baby
A A G G
She's mighty fine and says she's all mine
D D
And nothing's going to bring me down
(musical solo – D D, G G, D D, A A, G G, D D)

D D
But best of all (best of all)
I've got my baby
G G
But best of all (best of all)
D D
I've got my baby
A A G G
She's mighty fine and says she's all mine
