Montgomery Gentry
For The Money
Capo 1
F C Am
Bb F C Am Bb F
Ah, let me tell you 'bout my family...
C Am Bb F
Daddy almost made a livin'
C Am Bb F
With 80 acres and a plow
C Am Bb G
He coulda bought that place twice over
Bb F
Workin' for someone in town
F C
Am Bb F
Ahh, but you shoulda seen him...
C Am Bb F
In his fields at harvest time
C Am Bb G
You'd swear the gates of heaven opened
Bb F
And he was standin' first in line
[Chorus]
F C Am Bb F
You can't be in it For The Money
C Am Bb C F
Money comes and money goes
C Am Bb G
You can't be in it For The Money
Bb F C Am Bb F
Oh you gotta satisfy your soul
F C Am Bb F
I grabbed the world when I turned eighteen
C Am Bb F
I turned it over and I shook it hard
C Am Bb G
I filled my pockets up with money
Bb F
But it burned a hole right through my heart
[Chorus]
F C Am Bb, F C Am Bb, F C Am Bb, F C Am Bb, G Bb F
F C Am Bb F
You know everybody's got a purpose
C Am Bb F
From mendin' bones to tendin' bar
C Am Bb G
You might say that I found mine
Bb F
When I wrap my hands around this guitar
Am Bb Am
I still wonder if I'm crazy
C Am
Tryin' to bring a dream to life
Bb G
But I look forward to tomorrow
Bb F
And I sleep pretty good at night
[Chorus]
F C Am Bb F
You can't be in it For The Money
F C Am Bb F
You can't be in it For The Money
