Makin' Music for Money – Intro DG - D
D
When I woke up this mornin'  

         G             D 
I was tired as I could be

  A
I think I was countin' my money

            G                  D  
When I should a' been countin' sheep

D             
My agent he just called me

       G                  D
And told me what I should be

    A                                           
If I would make my music for money

     G                      D
Instead of makin' music for me
Chorus:
          G                        D           
I said, I know that this may sound funny

       G                        D 
But money don't mean nothin' to me

             G            D   
I won't make my music for money

              A                 D     
No, I'm gonna make my music for me

D-G -D
He said, the people only buy the love songs
        G                D
Rock n' roll and not too long

         A  
He said, son you got to be commercial

       G                       D
If you want to turn the people on
And I said, turnin' on the people
       G                        D 
Now that's a beautiful place to be

          A
But if I spend my time makin' them up a rhyme

      G                   D 
Well, who's gonna turn on me? 
Chorus:
          G                        D           
I said, I know that this may sound funny

    G                           D 
But money don't mean nothin' to me

        G                 D   
I won't make my music for mone

              A                 D     
No, I'm gonna make my music for me
D - G - D Well now I went up to country
         G                      D 
And I'll tell you all about the scene

   A      
I found a place with much charm and much grace

            G                    D
That wasn't touched by the music machine

D
Whoa, the people were havin' a good time

       G             D 
Makin' music all day long

    A
And nobody cared if they ever got paid

    G                   D
One penny for playin' a song
Chorus:
          G                        D           
I said, I know that this may sound funny

    G                           D 
But money don't mean nothin' to me

        G                 D   
I won't make my music for money

I won't make my music for money

No, I'm gonna make my music for me
