1st Verse 
                                  
There's a mountain and it's mighty high
                             
U cannot see the top unless U fly
                               
There's a molehill of proven ground
                                    
There ain't no where 2 go if U hang around


                                       
Everybody wants 2 sell what's already been sold
                                       
Everybody wants 2 tell what's already been told
                                                  
What's the use of money if U ain't gonna break the mold?
                       Bb(9)/D        (9)
Even at the center of fire    there is cold
                                  
All that glitters ain't gold 

                               
All that glitters ain't gold, mmm


2nd Verse
                       
There's an ocean of despair
                         
There are people livin' there
                             
They're unhappy each and every day
                                          
But hell is not fashion so what U tryin' 2 say?

                                       
Everybody wants 2 sell what's already been sold
                                       
Everybody wants 2 tell what's already been told
                                                 
What's the use of money if U ain't gonna break the mold?

All that glitters ain't gold, no no

                        
There's a lady, 99 years old
                                          
If she led a good life, heaven takes her soul
                                         
Now that's a theory and if U don't wanna know
                                                
Step aside and make a way 4 those who want 2 go
