As recorded by John Cougar Mellencamp (From the 1979 Album JOHN COUGAR) [Intro] D E F#m D E A [Verse 1]
N.C.        D                   E
You've been checking some girls heart

         A
For some tenderness

            D
But all you found this far

           E                  A
Her credit card eyes and some pretentiousness

         D                    E
Tell her you're gonna have to pass

             F#m                       D
If she don't like it she can kiss your ass

                             E
Cos all you really wanted anyway

                   A
Was your take home pay
[Chorus]
N.C.      D                       E           A
Take home pay, better spend it as fast as you can

          D                   E                         A
Take home pay, buy yourself a lover beats beatin’ it by hand

                   D
You know what they say

                E
Money can't buy happiness

            F#m
But you 're feelin real good

            D
When you’re real well dressed

                            E
And you're blowin them all away

                        A
Spending your take home pay!
[Harmonica Solo] N.C. D E A D E A D E F#m D E A [Chorus]
N.C.      D                       E           A

          D                   E                         A
Take home pay, buy yourself a lover beats beatin’ it by hand

                   D
You know what they say

                E
Money can't buy happiness

            F#m
But you 're feelin real good

            D
When you’re real well dressed

                            E
And you're blowin them all away

                        A
Spending your take home pay!

N.C.      D                       E           A
Take home pay, better spend it as fast as you can

          D                   E                         A
Take home pay, buy yourself a lover beats beatin’ it by hand

                   D
You know what they say

                E
Money can't buy happiness

            F#m
But you 're feelin real good

            D
When you’re real well dressed

                            E
And you're blowin them all away

                        A
Spending your take home pay!
