Eva Cassidy – Penny To My Name (Ukulele)

A                       C
Bill and I got married following our first-born

Em                      Em                 A
Daddy left this gas and convenience store just before he died	

A                              C
And I was only nineteen when I had my third baby	

Em                              A                    A     
Sometimes I think maybe I should have left here long ago	

A			  C
Travelers are stopping by check their oil and their P.S.I.

Em			 Em		 A
Gas up and away they fly moving down the line

A			
But this beat up truck and worn out shoes

C
Always giving me the blues

Em			      A
Bill is sucking down the booze nearly every night

C                  A            A              C
I've never seen the city lights how they must shine so bright

A             C                A                A
Not like this country night the sky's black as coal			

C                    A
And this gas station mountain home		

A              C
Not a thing to call my own

A            C            A     A     A
I wish I was alone with a penny to my name			

A				    C
Strangers say this mountain here is beautiful beyond compare

Em					  Em		A
But it's just a dumb old mountain there I see it every day

A				   C
If I could see a sunset skies over fields of grain or ocean tides

Em				   A
City skyline in the night I'll be dancing till the dawn

A			C
Bill and I got married following our first-born

Em			Em		   A
Daddy left this gas and convenience store just before he died

A			     C
Maybe Bill and I someday will find a chance to get away

Em				A
Until then it's here I'll stay wishing on a star
