I'm just an old fashioned girl with an old fashioned mind

I'd like a plain simple car, a cerise Cadillac,
A E F#7 B7
Long enough to have a bowling alley in the back
E G#m A Am
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
E B7 E
And an old fashioned millionaire
G#m
I'll stay weaving at my loom,
D#7
Be no trouble to my groom,
G#m F#7 B
If he'll keep the piles of money mounting
A#m D#7
In our cottage there will be
G#m
A soundproof nursery
F#7 B B7
Not to wake the baby while I'm counting
E G#m A E
I like the old fashioned flowers, violets are for me
A E F#7 B7
Have them made in diamonds by the man at Tiffany

I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence

And an old fashioned millionaire

I'm just a pilgrim at heart, oh so pure and genteel

A E F#7 B7
Two appartment buildings that are labelled Hers and Hers

And an old fashioned millionaire
G#m
I like Chopin and Bizet
D#7
And the songs of yesterday,
G#m F#7 B
String quartets and Polynesian carols
A#m D#7
But the music that excels
G#m
Is the sound of oil wells
F#7 B B7
As they slurp, slurp, slurp into the barrels
E G#m A E
My little home will be quaint as an old parasol,
A E F#7 B7
And instead of carpets I'll have money wall to wall
E G#m A Am
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
E B7 E
And an old fashioned millionaire
