-----------------------.................

*from 'Hotter Than July' (1980)*


Intro:

D9  G (x8)

Verse 1:

(D9                 G)
 You just could not know,
    D9             G
How long we tried,
D9               G
 To see how this building,
D9            G
 Looks inside.

D9         G          D9         G
 This must be a lucky day for me,
D9           G
 Because the sign says,
          D9       G
There's a vacancy.

Bridge 1:

       G
Look I know you came a long way,
F        E7
 But you made it just too late;
      G                      G/A  D
So we had to give it to some-body else.

       G
Well I talked to you on the phone,
F          E7
 Less than fifteen minutes ago;
        F7           G7     A7
And you told me that it was cool.

Verse 2:

                 D9        G
I graduated from Harvard U.
D9         G           D9        G
 My job is paying good money too.
D9          G           D9      G
 And if you check on my resume;
D9           G
 You'll find they all,
       D9          G
Wanted me to stay.

Bridge 2:

       G
Well I can't take the time out,
F   E7
 To check your credit card,
             G
'Cos the com-puter,
           G/A     D
Just broke down to-day.

          G
Well I'll stop by here tomorrow,
F       E7
 To com-plete our interview,
      F7               G7    A7
But I know what you're gonna say.
(I know what your bottomline is);

Chorus 1:

    D9             G
You might have the cash,
    G          D9           G
But you cannot cash in your face;
                  D9             G, D9  G
We don't want you living in here.

        D9             G
Say you might have the cash,
    G          D9           G
But you cannot cash in your face;
                  D9             G, D9  G
We don't want you living in here.

Break:

G7
 Too-oo, too-oo...
G/A  D7   G  D9
 Too bad.

G7
 Too-oo, too-oo..
G/A  D7   G
 Too sad.

Interlude:

D9  G, D9  G (x2)

Verse 3:

(G)
 Our first child,
            D9       G
Is due here any day;
         D9      G
Due here any day,
D9                G 
 That's why we're desperate,
       D9      G
For a place to stay.

D9      G
 The lo-cation is,
    D9          G
So perfect too,
D9         G
 So please try to do,
     D9         G
What you can do.

Bridge 3:

     G
Well in this apartment complex,
F   E7
 No children are allowed;
           G
And if you told me that,
                         G/A    D
I could have saved you a-lot of time.

       G
Well I thought the Bill was passed,
          F   E7
That said you could not discriminate?
      F7           G7          A7
But I know some ex-cuse you'll find.
(Because your bottom line is);

Chorus 2:

    D9             G
You might have the cash,
    G          D9           G
But you cannot cash in your face;
                  D9             G, D9  G
We don't want you living in here.

        D9             G
Say you might have the cash,
    G          D9           G
But you cannot cash in your face;
                  D9             G, D9  G
We don't want you living in here.

Coda:

         D9               G      D9  G
Aye, you might be a great doctor,
    D9               G       D9  G
You might be a great lawyer.
    D9                G          D9   G
You might possess the key to the city,
   D9           G      D9  G
Or maybe a poli-tician.

    D9             G
You might have the cash,
    G          D9           G
But you cannot cash in your face;
                  D9             G, D9  G
We don't want you living in here.

        D9             G
Say you might have the cash,
    G          D9           G
But you cannot cash in your face;
                  D9             G, D9  G
We don't want you living in here.
