Capo: 3rd fret

[Intro]
Am Am         Am
      Eskiboy,   Mark Ronson
          Am
Put this one in your record box!
 
[Verse 1]
  Am                      Am
I take too long to answer telephones
           Dm                              Dm
I take too long to type my name and record messages
            F                B
But my hand writing is excellent
              E         Am       Am
In fact, it's second to none, none
 
  Am                         Am
I just got in from somewhere really good
             Dm                        Dm
They offered me the part of Bono and a speaking role
             F                B
With all the merchandise and sunglasses
E            Am       Am
I could ever need, need
 
  Am                       Am
I drive 'round cities in a chariot
      Dm                            Dm
I get preferential treatment at the Marriott
           F
But if the truth be told
     B          E         F
I'm naked under all these clothes
 
 
[Chorus]
              C                 G      Dm
I'll tell you what it is on my mind, woah
  F                       C                   G      Dm
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
  F                       C                   G      Dm
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
    F                   B             E
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
 
 
Am    Am
 
 
[Verse 2]
   Am                       Am
My brain is buzzing and the room is strange
          Dm                             Dm
Like that scene in Trading Places at the stock exchange
         F                      B
I made a million overnight in '87
        E            Am                        Am
Now I'm living in my parking space, parking space
 
   Am                      Am
My teeth are bright and my hair is clean
       Dm                      Dm
I wear Paco Rabanne like I was Charlie Sheen
           F                 B
But in the rain, we all look wet
           E                 F
And in the snow, we all look cold
 
 
[Chorus]
              C                 G      Dm
I'll tell you what it is on my mind, woah
  F                       C                   G      Dm
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
  F                       C                   G      Dm
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
    F                   B             E
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
 
 
[Break]
Am Am    Am
      Yo,   Eskiboy
  Am
A-listed (A-listed)
 
 
[Verse 3]
   Am
Disgusted by all the flashness
               Am
I think I'm a don, they think I'm an actor but I catch this (Catch)
Am
   My two needs are a pillow and a mattress
Am                                          Am
Once I can fill up the space with a famous actress
                             Am
Give me a mil', I'll do a DJ set
I pull spikey with the green like a cactus
Am
Showoff, ego's high, you can't match this
Am
Chauvinistic pig, Money Man tactics
 
 
[Verse 4]
    Am                 Am
I'm not as clever as I thought I was
       Dm                         Dm
It got pointed out to me as I was tying the knot
          F
And all I want to know is
 B        E      Am       Am
How I got so far down, down
 
    Am                Am
I'm not as lucky as I thought I was
            Dm                         Dm
My luck ran out the other day as I was crossing the road
               F                      B
Who would have thought a truck like that
       E
Could cause so much?
 
 
[Chorus]
(F)              C                 G      Dm
   I'll tell you what it is on my mind, woah
  F                       C                   G      Dm
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
  F                       C                   G      Dm
I only want to be in your record collection, woah, aaah
    F                   B             E
And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
              I take too long
To answer telephones
I take too long to type my name
And record messages
But my handwriting is excellent
In fact it's second to none, none

I just got in
From somewhere really good
They offered me the part of Bono
And a speaking role
With all the merchandise
And sunglasses
I could ever need, need

I drive round cities in a chariot
I get preferential treatment
At the Marriott but if the truth be told
I'm naked under all those clothes

I tell you what is on my mind
I only want to be
In your record collection
I only want to be
In your record collection
And I'll do anything it takes
Just to get there

My brain is buzzing
And the room is strange
Like the scene in trading places
At the stock exchange
I made a million overnight in '87
Now I'm living in my
Parking space, parking space

My teeth are bright
And my hair is clean
I wear Paco Rabanne
Like I was Charlie Sheen
But in the rain we all look wet
And in the snow we all look cold

I tell you what is on my mind
I only want to be
In your record collection
I only want to be
In your record collection
And I'll do anything it takes
Just to get there

Disgusted by all the flashness
I think I'm a don
They think I'm an actor
But I catch this
My two needs
Are pillow and a mattress
Once I can fill up the space
With a famous actress
Give me a mil, I'll do a DJ set
I pull spikey with the green
Like a cactus
Show off, ego's high
You can't match this
Chauvinistic pig
Money man tactics

I'm not as clever
As I thought I was
It got pointed out to me
As I was tying the knot
And all I want to know is
How I got so far down, down

I'm not as lucky
As I thought I was
My luck ran out the other day
As I was crossing the road
Who would have thought

Could have caused so much

I tell you what is on my mind
I only want to be
In your record collection
I only want to be
In your record collection
And I'll do anything it takes
Just to get there
