Chords

[Intro] E Em E5 Em E5 D [Verse 1]
      Em                            E
I had fourteen dollars in my inside pocket

    Em                    B
And twenty-two more up my sleeve

          Em             G            A
There was cold hard cash lining up my jacket

      Em             B               E
But I did not have a dime when I did leave
[Verse 2]
       Em                      E
When I got here I was carrying roses

       Em                            B
When I had to go, I was only holding dirt

       Em             E         A         G
Well I walked in here wearing a tuxedo

      Em           B             E
But I left wearing just an old t-shirt
[Bridge]
     A                                E
They say it's hard times, and don't I know it

    C#m                       B
I'm sleeping on a bed made of nails

        Em           D             B
Well, I used to live way up in the penthouse

      Em               B                  E
Now I can't even get a room in the county jail
[Chorus]
E
Now that your dollar bills have sprouted wings

                                           B
And I don't think they'll come around next spring

E
Just like birds of prey

          A
They will take what's yours and fly away

    Em               B                   E
Now that your dollar bills have sprouted wings
[Instrumental] E E5 E D [Verse 3]
        Em                E
Well, I came to town on a pile of diamonds

        Em                E         B
Now I'm leaving on a wheelbarrow of dust

     Em   E           A
With IOUs glued to my eyelids

Em           B                E
Sitting here watching my safe rust
[Bridge]
A                                     E
Watching all your coins roll down the gutter

C#m                               B
All your champagne going down the sink

         Em                    D         E
Is there something that you're trying to remember?

           Em                 B                E
Or is that string around your finger a wedding ring?
[Chorus]
E
Now that your dollar bills have sprouted wings

                                           B
And I don't think they'll come around next spring

E
Just like birds of prey

          A
They will take what's yours and fly away

    Em               B                   E
Now that your dollar bills have sprouted wings
