Dm7    C
Fake it
A#
Take the cash and all the jewels
    A/C#
The world was made for only you
Dm7
Take it
        C
If you will
    A#
To be a magpie in the safe
 A/C#
Sure must be a tempting place

And now they let you in
Not crawling 'round on all fours
The art shows, the marble floors
Take care of yourself
See we all must be amused
That's why we make the rules

Chorus:
A#         F       C      Dm     A#
Well the shaker's got the money now
     F  C  Dm F     A#
The movers and the shakers
         F     C      Dm       A#
They're buying up the big lots now
F       C       Dm  A#
What a girl to take it
F       C       Dm  A#
What a girl to take it

Fake it if you will
She's finding it hard
She likes the big cars
Well I’m staying put
Drowning in the white art
Fool is he who plays a part
In nothing at all
You know they marked the bank notes
The ones in all the long coats
Suffer, you'll see
To play the game without a hand
You really must be a stand up man!

Chorus:
Well the shakers got the money now
The movers and the shakers
They're buying up the big lots now
What a girl to take it
What a girl to take it

Dm7                C
And she needs it bad
      Gm
Well, everybody had
   A/C#           A#
A friend like that

Chorus:
Well the shakers got the money now
The movers and the shakers
They're buying up the big lots now
What a girl to take it
What a girl to take it

Well the shakers got the money now
The movers and the shakers
They're buying up the big lots now
What a girl to take it
What a girl to take it
