Chords

I don't know why the chords are so far to the right, but the chords and lyrics are all here. Capo up somewhere between 3 and 5.
F                                                                                 C
I'd give you all of me to know what you were thinking 

                F                             D7                      G
And if I had one wish, I'd wish I wasn't sinking here 

Fdim                      Am
Drowning in this well 

                          D
Oh, can't you tell 

         F                                                    C
That I can't pick myself up off the ground 

                                      G
Well, I've been face down 

                         C            E7
And pushed aside 

                     F                                                       C
Well, you know I'd rather just turn tail and run 

                                      G
Than lie here in the sun 

         Fdim                         Am
And watch you pass me by 

           G                           F
Cause I ain't worth a dime 
(Yeah yeah ... oh yeah...) C/E G/D C/E F C/E G Chorus:
                                     F              C
But if only I could stand up straight, 

                                  G           C
I wouldn't have to lie and wait 

                            F      C
I'd get up and roll away 

                              G
And never be ignored 

                                                        F           C
I've got a feeling that I'm something more 

                                         G       C
Than just a piece of copper ore 

                                        F       C
Turning green and looking for 

                                  G
The reason I was born 

                   F                                 C
Well, I've been around since 1964 

                                            G
In banks and bottom drawers 

                               C       E7
And on railroad ties 

                     F
I've been passed around and cast aside 

     C
Skipped and flipped and flattened wide 

  G                            Fdim                     Am                 G
Spun around and thrown away and left alone to lie 
[Chorus]
C                                     F         C
But I heard about a penny found 

                          G              C
Lying underneath the couch 

                                             F            C
By a woman who was kneeling down 

                                      G
Looking for some change 

                                    F           C
Then the woman danced around 

                                 G                     C
And called her friends all over town 

                                     F         C
Told 'em what was lost is found 

                                     G
It's another penny saved 

F
So I find that all this time 

   G/E
Beneath the surface, I could shine 

                        G      Fdim                                    Am         G
Like all the gold a king and queen could measure 

                   F                  G                  C
You see, even just a penny is a treasure
