C Cadd9 C Dm7
|
As you wash your hair and bathe in Perrier
|
Am Dm
|
As you hit the bank machine at night
|
Am Dm
|
Drinking money for tomorrow's flight
|
C Cadd9 C Dm7
|
As you count your loss or bet on a black horse
|
Am Dm
|
Sit behind the wheel of a black Porsche
|
Am Dm Dm7
|
Use your leather organiser with your name embossed
|
Dm Dm7 Dm Dm7 Am
|
The night is thick with frost It chills your heart
|

CHORUS Cycle on Am Dm Dm7 Dm
|
|
You got the world Right where you want it
|
Where do you want Where do you want the world?
|
You got the girl Right where you want her
|
But where do you want Where do you want the girl?
|
|
I pulled up at your door And turned the key once more
|
Took a calculator from my pocket
|
Checked a picture of us in a locket
|
I knew you were not in An alarm began to ring
|
Punched a number on a cordless phone
|
Made an offer on a Dockland's condominium home
|
Somewhere with no soul That won't remind me
|
|
CHORUS instrumental verse REPEAT CHORUS (long instrumental noodle)

YOU GOT THE WORLD (RIGHT WHERE YOU WANT IT)
