[Verse 1]
DWhen I get to heaven
G DAnd we’re linend up outside the pearly gates.
ABut we're all walking, small talking, mingling
G D G DI already know what I'm gonna say
DWhen we all trade stories
G Bm7Of what we did with our lives
AI won't say that I played music or could sing
EmWhen it's my turn I think I'll smile
[Chorus]
G A DSay I was the richest man in the world
Bm GFather to a baby girl
A DAnd two boys that I know loved me
G A Bm Famous to a few good friends
D/F# GAnd beside me ’till the end
A DWas my wife who is so lovely
Em D/F# GAnd I don't know who could ask for any more
D GI'm the richest man in thе world
DRichest man in the world
[Verse 2]
D DI may nеver live in Montecito
G DI'll probably never own a jet
A AThe sands of time will wear down all the fame and fortune
G D G DTill I don't have any left
D DI don't want some great big funeral
G Bm7I don't want flowers on my grave
AJust play this song or have someone write this somewhere
EmI'd like to let the record state
[Chorus]
G A DHere lies the richest man in the world
Bm GFather to a baby girl
A DAnd two boys that I know loved me
G A BmWas famous to a few good friends
D/F# GAnd beside me til the end
A DWas my wife who is so lovely
Em D/F# GAnd I don't know who could ask for any more
D GI'm the richest man in the world
D G D G DThe richest man in the world
