[Verse]
Am Dm6 C E
I've been sleeping in a cardboard box
Am Dm6 C E
spending every dollar at the liquor shop
Am C F
and even though I know I haven't got a lot
Dm E E/G# Am
I'll try to give you loving till the day you drop
Am Dm6 C E
I've been training like a Pavlov dog
Am Dm6 C E
sent my independence out to take a hike
Am C F Dm
all you gotta do is activate my bell
E E/G# Am
and I'll fetch you anything you like
[Chorus]
D C
Going once, going twice
F G
Every man here has a price
D C
Over here, over there
F G E
Sold to not a single lady in here
[Verse]
Am Dm C
I've been here like a thousand times
G Am Dm C E
Dated every woman in the atmosphere
Am Dm6 C E
I've been to every continent
Am Dm6 C
Broken all the hearts in every hemisphere
E Am C F
And if I'm not the type of guy you like to circumvent
Dm E E/G# Am
Just remember not to love me when I disappear
Am Dm C
I graduated at the top
E Am Dm C
I like to take advantage of the bourgeoisie
E Am C F
So if you have a fantasy of being a queen
Dm E Am
Maybe you should blow a couple bucks on me
[Chorus]
D C
Going once, going twice
F G
Won't these gentlemen suffice?
D C
Any here, any there
A# A
Any motions anywhere
D C
Going twice, going thrice
F G E
Guess this means we'll go 4 times a lady
[Bridge]
A D A
I promise I'll be all you need, ever need
Bm E
You'll never have to shop around (don't shop around)
A D F#
And I'll give you all you ever need, ever need
Bm E A F#
Don't worry, I will never let you down, let you down
Bm E A
Don't worry, I will never let you down
[Outro]
D C
So many ladies are wanting for mates
F G
And the prospects are good but the date's never great
D C
Over here, over there, over where, anywhere
F
They're too busy with winning
G
The bidding to care and he's
D
Sold
