Verse 1: 
Gm        Cm 
  Vanities  are only charity 
Gm                Cm 
  And she makes donations  
at the Tiffany's 
Gm               F 
  Life is hard without a credit  
            Dm     Eb F 
card to get by get by 
Gm                   Cm 
  She sold her dreams  for security 
Gm              Cm 
  To a man that now she  
hardly ever sees 
Gm                 F 
  With a cold martini in her hand 
          Dm         Eb  F 
she don't mind don't mind 



Eb 
  So throw all your  
Gm        Eb 
luxuries aside 
You can't take them  
Gm                Eb 
with you when you die 
             Gm 
Still when I look into your 
Bb               D 
Eyes are full of dollar signs 


Chorus 1: 
   Gm 
Oh reach into a  
pocketful of dreams 
   D 
Oh now before they  
fall out of the seams 
   Cm 
Oh take a chance don't  
matter if you fail 
       Bb 
you're too scared to try 
          D 
cause you might break a nail oh 


Post Chorus: Gm--Cm-- x2 


Verse 2: 
Gm             Cm 
  If you design  a  
plastic happiness 
Gm 
  Then climb the social  
Cm 
ladder to the top my friend 
Gm                    F 
  And don't forget to thank the  
                   Dm    Eb  F 
piggy bank in the sky so high 


(Repeat Refrain) 
(Repeat Chorus 1 twice)

   Gm 
Oh reach into a  
pocketful of dreams 
   D 
Oh now before they

Oh take a chance don't  
matter if you fail 
       Bb 
you're too scared to try 
          D 
cause you might break a nail oh
