[C#m] Take [G#m] a look at my girlfriend, [A] she's the only one I got
[C#m] Not [B] much of a girlfriend, [A] but never seem to get a lot
[G#] Take a jumbo across the [C#] water like we see America
See [G#] the girls in [F#m] California, hoping it's going [B] to come true
[F#m] But there's not a [B] lot I can do
[C#m] So who are we [B] asking for breakfast?
[A] Oh, mommy dear, mommy dear
[C#m] We gotta [B] have a mint drink, sir
[A] Cause everyone's a millionaire
[E]
[G#] I'm a winner, I'm a [C#m] sinner
Do you want my autograph?
[C#]
[G#] I'm a loser, what a [F#m] joker
I blame my jokes [B] upon you
[F#m] Well, there's nothing [B] better to do
