Verse:
A5 C5
There's an automatic teller machine in the emergency room
D5 A5
There's a meter maid she arrives by broom
C5
There's a bear in the air with a lullaby
D5 A5
And a big brown coat to keep you warm at night
C5
There's a money tree and the latter leans
D5
Up against the trunk but the steps are greased

Verse 2
Chorus
Bridge:
No guitar, just bass playing the intro riff. Feedback into the next pre-chorus.
Pre-Chorus:
Play this riff twice. The second time there is a second guitar
doubling it, except on the second time through, the last note
ends on C, not B.
