Dolly Parton – Nickels And Dimes (Guitar)

A                                          E
I used to stand on the corner when I was a child

    E                                              A
And I'd play my guitar and sing as the people went by

    A                                                     E
The sidewalks were crowded but I'd just sing louder cause I didn't mind

E                                                                A
Spending my time, spinning my rhymes and singing for nickels and dimes

A                                                  E
Nickels and dimes A song at a time for nickels and dimes

    E                                                     A
I'd brighten their day as they go on their way And they'd brighten mine

  A                                               E
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that I held in my mind

  E                                                                       A
I knew that someday in my own special way I'd repay all their nickels and dimes

A                                                  E
I recall the sidewalk each night as I stand on the stage

   E                                            A
As I play my guitar and sing for the people who paid

      A                                               E
Cause I finally made it to what they all call the big time

    E                                             A
But I still remember I still owe some nickels and dimes

A                                                  E
Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes

  E                                               A
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that I held in my mind

   A                                        E
So if you remember a child on the corner of time

       E                                                A     E   F  (key change)
You'll know that I wrote this to repay your nickels and dimes

Bb                                                  F

  F                                               Bb

   Bb                                        F
