Jamey Johnson – Dollar (Guitar)

D
Daddy hugs his little man  

     A
says son I've got to go

       G                               A
and he pulls out of the drive and disappears

        D
as they walk back in the house

    A
the young boy asks his mama

G                              A
where does daddy go when he leaves here

D 
mama tells her little man

     A
your daddy's got a job

            G                                 A
and when he goes to work they pay him for his time 

         D               
well the young boy gets to thinking 

A
and he heads up to his bedroom 

          G                               A
and comes running back with a quarter and four dimes 

        G              A                  D
and says mama how much time will this buy me 

        G               D                  C               A
is it enough to take me fishing or throw a football in the street

G               F#                  Bm        A      G
if I'm a little short then how much more does daddy need

   Em         A         D 
to spend some time with me

D
the young boy tells his mama

    A 
now I know daddy's busy 

           G                                    A
cause most times when he gets home it's dark outside

         D 
but tell him I've got me some pennies 

      A
saved up from the tooth fairy

      G                                 A 
and I keep 'em in my piggy bank and I believe there's thirty-five 

    G             A                  D
and mama how much time will that buy me 

      G                 D            C                A
is it enough to take me camping in a tent down by the creek

G               F#                  Bm        A     G 
if I'm a little short then how much more does daddy need 

   Em         A         D
to spend some time with me 

G             A                  D
mama how much time will this buy me

      G                 D            C             A 
is it enough for just an afternoon a day or a whole week 

  G             F#             Bm             A     G
if I'm a little short then how much more does daddy need

   Em         A         D 
to spend some time with me 

D
mama takes her little man 

A
sets him on her lap

    G                                     A 
and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone

         D 
she says daddy come home early

          A 
you don't have to chase that dollar

           G              A               D
cause your little man has got one here at home
