Money    (video)

 

   G                            D

1. I get money from you,

                             G                              D

    to tickle your whim or blow up your mind.

            G                         D                               G

    Then I give money to you and you pay me back in kind.

 

           G                         D

2. And I gave money to Bill,

                             G                                                 D

    he pays up my bills and helps me make up my mind.

           G                        D                           G

    And I give money to Bill, and he will be on my side.

 

            G                           D

3. Then I gave money to Joe,

                                     G                                        D

    ‘cause Bill said he knows, he´ll pay me back in time.

            G                               D                       G

    And Bill´s gettin´paid to know, if anyone´s lyin´.

 

              G                               D

4. Then Bill said to give it to Hank,

                                       G                                      D

    ‘cause Hank owns a bank and he can make it grow.

             G                              D                                      G

    Now ain´t those amazing folks that Bill is lucky to know.

 

               G                                D

5. Somehow my finances will grow,

                                    G                             D

    with the interest I show in the interest it gives me.

             G                                       D                       G

    And now a piece of paper from me won´t seem half as flimsy.
