Somewhere in the South of France

Bb5 A5 G5
She said, I don't need to make a living
Fake diamonds got nothing on me
G5 Bb5 A5 G5
I met her in the world below
Bb5 A5 G5
She's a tourist of the world beneath

She said, I'm so rich, everything's free

I said, everything, I've built from nothing
She said, don't you blame your problems on me
