Intro

F5 D5 G5 C5

F5                                   D5
They opened up a bar called "Living Hell"
                                     G5
Right from the start it didn't go too well
                                   C5
They didn't have the vibe or quite the right clientele

F5                                          D5
They bought a velvet rope and the door man laughed
                                  G5
They got robbed blind by half the wait staff
                   C5
Six short weeks and they were forced to sell

Bb5         F5
Richie and Ruben
Ab5                      Eb5
Don't know what they're doin'
Bb5         F5
Richie and Ruben
                  C5
Are both a little out of their minds
Don't give 'em a dime
They'll blow through your dough
                             F5
Just like they blew through mine
             D5
A-whoa a-a-o
       G5
Whoa-o a-a-o
Where did the money go?
C5
Where did the money go?

F5                                   D5
They opened a boutique they called "Degree"
                               G5
Together with some kid from F.I.T.

Though later it turned out he never quite
C5
Got his degree

F5                                    D5
Eleven hundred bucks for a ripped up shirt
                                           G5
That came pre-stained with bleach and black dirt

Seemed just a little bit
C5
Too steep to me - e - e -   - e - e

Bb5         F5
Richie and Ruben
Ab5                      Eb5
Don't know what they're doin'
Bb5         F5
Richie and Ruben
                  C5
Are both a little out of their minds
Don't give 'em a dime
They'll blow through your dough
                             D5
Just like they blew through mine

-- Bridge --
D5                 G5
And ever since the seventh grade
                        C5               C5
They've been sayin that "we've got it made"
              Ab5
And I haven't gotten paid
       F#5         F5
Gotten paid at all
             D5
A-whoa a-a-o
           G5
Whoa-o A5 - A-o
Where did the money go?
C5
Where did the money go?

Bb5         F5
Richie and Ruben
Ab5                      Eb5
Don't know what they're doin'
Bb5         F5
Richie and Ruben
                 C5
Are both a little
They're both a little
They're both a little
             F5
Out of their minds
