[Verse 1]
A
I got a friend who's a workaholic - he never knows when to quit
E
Me, I knock off early - every chance I get
A D
He's got an IRA for a rainy day - but I wonder if he knows
E A
You can't take it with you when you go
[Chorus]
D
You can't take it with you when you go
A E
You better take some time to live and love - before you get too old
A D
All the treasure in this world don't mean a thing when they lay you low
E A
You can't take it with you when you go
[Solo]
A E A D E A
[Verse 2]
A
While I'm out somewhere a-fishin' - you can bet he's workin' hard
E
My little boat's in the water - his big boat sits in the yard
A D
And while I'm makin' time with that gal of mine - his love life's on hold
E A
You can't take it with you when you go
[Chorus]
D
You can't take it with you when you go
A E
You better take some time to live and love - before you get too old
A D
All the treasure in this world - don't mean a thing when they lay ya low
E A
'Cause you can't take it with you when you go
[Solo]
A E A D E A
[Verse 3]
A
Now hard work it's a virtue - and there's nothin' wrong with that
E
Well, I ain't afraid to pull my weight - but I ain't about to break my back
A D
I ain't a-worried about my bank account - just let the good times roll
E A
Well, you can't take it with you when you go
[Chorus]
D
You can't take it with you when you go
A E
You better take some time to live and love - before ya get too old
A D
All the treasure in this world don't mean a thing when they lay ya low
E A
You can't take it with you when ya go
A D
All the treasure in this world - ain't worth a dime when they lay ya low
E A
You can't take it with you when you go....
