[Am],---------- [Dm],---------- [F]---------- and [G]. The life I've always wanted I guess I'll never have I'll be working for somebody else Until I'm in my grave I'll be dreaming of life of ease And mountains o' things To have a big expensive car Drag my furs on the ground And have a maid that I can tell To bring me anything Everyone will look at me with envy and with greed I'll revel in their attention And mountains Oh mountains o' things To have Sweet lazy life Champagne and caviar I hope you'll come and find me Cause you know who we are Those who deserve the best in life And know what money's worth And those whose sole misfortune Was having mountains o' nothing at birth Oh they tell me There's still time to save my soul They tell me Renounce all Renounce all tose material things you gained by Exploiting other human beings Consume more than you need This is the dream Make you pauper Or make you queen I won't die lonely I'll have it all prearranged A grave that's deep and wide enough For me and all my mountains o' things Mostly I feel lonely Good good people are Good people are only My stepping stones It's gonna take all my mountains o' things To surround me Keep all my enemies away Keep my sadness and loneliness at bay I'll be dreaming, dreaming, dreaming.. Dreaming...

[C]She's got her ticket [G]I think she gonna use it [Am]I think she going [C]to fly away[Am] No one should try and stop her Persuade her with their power She says that her mind is made Up Why not leave why not Go away Too much hatred Corruption and greed Give your life And invariably they leave you with Nothing Young girl ain't got no chances No roots to keep her strong She's shed all pretenses That someday she'll belong Some folks call her a runaway A failure in the race But she knows where her ticket takes her She will find her place in the sun And she'll fly, fly, fly...

Perhaps despite first appearances, not very complex left hand fingering. Basically, finger-picking between G, D, and C chords. Pattern changes to strumming right before "Look at me losing control,". Use Em (022000), C (x32010), Am7 (x02010) and another C. Upon "emotions" the finger picking pattern is resumed.
