[Intro]
G C D G
G C D G
[Verse 1]
G C D G
Wealthy people like to live, live near the water
G C D G
They pass their real estate down to their sons and their daughters
G C D G
Generations of happy just enjoying the view
G C D G
But when the water starts rising you know what they’re gonna do
[Chorus 1]
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
Holy doodle, look at your town
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
[Verse 2]
G C D G
All those singers and actors and philanthropists
G C D G
Say the poor are at the top of their priority list
G C D G
But when the levies start breaking and the barriers fall
G C D G
Where will they be when we come to pay a courtesy call?
G C D G
With their mistresses, wives, pets, children and all
G N.C.
At the top of a hill behind a fortified wall
[Chorus 2]
G C D G
‘Cos the rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
Holy doodle, look at your town
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
[Verse 3]
G C D G
Every sad number that the scientists find
G C D G
You get the feeling that some people really don’t mind
G C D G
To see a new feudal age for the whole human race
G C D G
‘Cos the rabble will finally be all back in their place
G C D G
They’ll be no revolution, we’ll be meek as wet mouses
N.C.
Begging them to let our children serve in their houses
[Chorus 3]
G C D G
‘Cos the rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
Holy doodle, look at your town
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
[Outro]
G C D G
Take me higher
G C D G
To that higher ground
G C D G
You and me baby, we’re gonna watch the poor drown
G C D G
‘Cos the rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
G C D G
Holy doodle, look at your town
G C D G
The rich are gonna move to the high ground
