Oh, super fat, [D] you're gonna [A] make your [E] fortune come [D] [E] back.
[Bm] But if you [A] lose, you'll lose [E] no [D] questions [Em] why.
[D] The only [A] game you know [E] is do or die.
[A] Oh, oh, oh, [E] hard to understand what a hell of a man.

[E] Oh, super fat.
The [D] aim of his [Am] rule [Ab] was to move a lot of people.
[E]
Ask him his dream, what does it mean?
He wouldn't know.
Can't be like the rest, it's the most he'll confess.
But the time's running out and there's no happiness.
Oh, super fat, [Em] [Bm] you're gonna [A] make your [E] fortune come back.
