Jamey Johnson – The Dollar (Guitar)

D                               A
Daddy hugs his little man, says son I’ve got to go

    G                               A
And pulls out of the drive and disappears

        D                          A
As they walk back in the house the young boy asks his mama

G                           A
Where does daddy go when he leaves here

D                               A
Mama tells her little man, Your daddy’s got a job

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

         D                          A
Well the young boy gets to thinking and he heads up to his bedroom

      G                                A
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                                A
The young boy tells his mama now I know daddy’s busy

      G                                 A
Cause most times when he gets home it’s dark outside

             D                        A
But tell him I’ve got me some pennies 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 says mama how much time will this buy me

       G                D            C                A
Is it enough to take me campin' 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                         A
Mama takes her little man sets him on her lap

    G                              A
And starts dialing up some numbers on the phone

         D                               A
She says daddy come home early you don’t have to chase that dollar

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