[Verse 1]
[G]When I'm broke or than broke
And it's all up in smoke
[D]I got zero
Gambled and beat, no shoes on my [G]feet
I ain't no her[C]o
[Em]My[C][D][C][D]
[G]luck [C]is all
lost at a horrible cost
And I'm down, held [G]to ground,
and viewed as unsound
[D]And I gotta say, I'm the happiest man in
the [G]world[C][G]
[C][G][C][G]
When you ain't got [C]noth[G]in',
ain't got nothin' they can take [D]away
Got all the time in the world
To check out this gorgeous
[G]state[C][G]
[C]Ain't [G]got no cell [C]phone,
bill collector[G]s,
leave me alone
Ain't got no [C]un affordable mortgage,
I'm no unaffordable home
And I [D]gotta say,
I'm the happiest man in [G]the world[C][G]
[C]Well, [G]look at [C]my friends,
they are [G]all like jewels, [D]I am rich
Some people get power,
they act like fools,
I never [G]switch[C][G][C][G]
Sittin' on a park bench, lovin' the sun
[C]Ain't got a nickel, but it sure is fun
And [D]I gotta say,
I'm the happiest man in [G]the world.[C][G]
Well, I went to the ATM [C]when I [G]awoke,
and I almost choked when [D]it spoke.
It said, you are broke, financially depleted,
your money is deleted.
Like your hairline, it has receded.
It contin[G]ued to speak, it said it's bleak,
your troubles are big.
But it offered [C]a solution,
a bit of restitution.
This ATM was a [G]ma chine
with the means
Spilling the beans to pay for my dreams
I [D]said, you're giving me chills
Spit out the bills
I need a tower of gold
The contents [D]of a king's billfold
I need the treasure in a pirate's hold
I need [D]cash hard and cold
I'm insatiable from [D]what I've been told
I need the profits of a corporation sold
And if I can be so bold
What Wall Street stole
And enough dough to buy rolls
And hand -tailored clothes
And mansions and islands that I have chose
And I don't want to die,
I want my body [D]to be froze
Security that'll never doze.
Live sculpture in a perpetual pose.
I want to be bathed in velvet
from my head to my toes.
I want my teeth capped in gold,
so when the light goes out,
my head it [G]glows.
[C]No sooner had[G] I spoken
[C]that [G]the AT[D]M spit out a bus token,
said, here's the situation,
you'll be taking public transportation.
I was incredulous.
This is an in[G]sult off [C]the charts.
I said, [G]what do I look like,
Cinderella at the Wal[C]mart?
I felt like a clown
as I drove through the town
in the bus in the back thought I had riches
[G]But I didn't [C]have jack [G]I in the street
trying to com[D]prehend my defeat
And who did I spy with my little eye
but Sheena with a new life complete
see she had done time for a
serious crime
But after her incarceration
She had given her life a new interpretation
by ringing the bell for the salvation
of souls
And when they hear the bell toll
they know they are in
receipt of a place to eat
[D]and a place to warm their feet
I said, look at my friend Sheena.
Ain't she an angel?
Righteously [D]sweet.
[G]Her life cou[C]ld have been for naught.
[G]Her resurrection was hard fou[D]ght.
And here comes Bobby.
He's off the pipe.
He should have been dead, we all thought.
He was up to his neck.
He was a wreck.
But he kept it in check
[G]with his sense of humor.
[C]He had us laugh[G]ing at his antics.
Even through a tumor.
[C]And I hope he hangs on to
his health.
Because roaring in his glorious stories
adds to my [G]wealth.
And there's [C]Jennifer.
She's [G]working. Clerking.
She's also on [D]the poll,
got the young boys jerkin'
Now that's no judgment
berserkin'
Homelessness was [D]lurkin'
She got a special needs child
So she does it all with a smile
Bordering on smirk[D]in'[G]
[C]I think it's safe t[G]o say
I had an epi[D]phany that day
Look at all my friends,
barely employed
Maintaining their integrity,
not null and void
Inspirational, conversational
These are the things that [G]I've enjoyed
[C]I've seen beggars with
[G]the stature of kings
[C]I've [G]seen [C]homeless sharing
as if they had wings
and other things, like patience,
[G]on death's doo[C]r, smiling more,
[G]not knowing what's [C]in store.[G][D]
I saw what clarity, charity,
and it humbled me galore,
and I went back to that ATM again
and requested an encore,
because sometimes you gotta
open up your eyes
and see what life is truly for.
[D]And that ATM didn't [D]gloat,
said, aw, you ain't really broke,
[D]you're rich as a king,
[D]you just ain't got no money,
that's [G]the thing.[C][G]
[C]The [G]more stuff you got,
[C]the more [G]stuff you got that'll [D]break
Put down that cell phone,
talk to me face [G]to face[C][G]
[C]Well, I'm [G]checking out [C]people,
[G]loving the ways
[D]Ain't [C]been broke in all of my days
An[D]d I gotta say,
I'm the happiest man in [G]the world[C][G]
And I [D]gotta say,
I'm the happiest man in [G]the world[C][G]
And [D]I gotta say,
I'm the happiest man [D]in the [G]world[C][G]
