Roger McGuinn (born James McGuinn III) is most famous for being a founding member, singer, guitarist, and songwriter in The Byrds. Since that band's demise he has had moderate success as a solo artist, working with many other artists, including Bob Dylan and Tom Petty. Some of his solo material has appeared in films, such as 1969's Easy Rider. Roger, along with the other Byrds members, was honored with an induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1991.

Roger McGuinn Bag Full Of Money written by Roger McGuinn/Jacques Levy
GCG I grew up believing in Jesse and Frank AD Cause we never had nothing or no one to thank CG And I came pretty close to unloading a bank DG But I was saved by my draft board when they made me a Yank GCG In the 102nd they busted your hump AD The taught me a man isn't always a chump CG In the course of Korea I learned how to jump DG In the card game of life I was holding a trump GCG Floating I'm floating on down thru the sky AD Never had no ambition to learn how to fly CG Be glad when it's over be happy to land DG With this bag full of money I've got in my hands GCG If you can't get a job and they think your insane AD If the years of your youth have been washed down the drain CG And if you wake up one morning with nothing but pain DG It was then I decided to grab me a plane GCG With all of my training it wasn't to tough GAD Now I'm thru taken orders and taken their guff CG Gonna buy me a cadilac and some luxury stuff DG Cause a veterans pension ain't nearly enough
