--------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Intro] | D A/D | G/D D | | D A/D | G/D D | [Verse 1]
   D          A/D     G/D  D
Of all of the people 

     D         A/D   G/D  D
That I used to know

     D       A/D     G/D  D
Most never adjusted 

       D         A/D    G/D  D
To the great big world
[Verse 2]
           D          A             G   D
I see them lurking in book stores

D               A             G   D
Working for the Public Radio

               D       A          G             D
Carrying their babies around in a sack on their back

       D           A     G   D
Moving careful and slow
[Chorus]
     D          A         G   D
It's money that matters

D           A     G   D
Hear what I say

     D          A         G   D
It's money that matters

       D A   G   D
In the USA
[Bridge]
Bm                           F#m           G
All of these people are much brighter than I

   Bm                         F#m          G
In any fair system they would flourish and thrive

                   D/A
But they barely survive

               A            A#dim     Bm    A  G  D/F#
They eke out a living, they barely survive
[Link]
     A                   C
When I was a young boy, 

A                C
Maybe thirteen

         A                    C
I took a hard look around me 

          A                   C
And asked what does it mean?
[Verse 3]
     D            A           G         D
So I talked to my father, and he didn't know

      D            A          G         D
And I talked to my friend and he didn't know

      D            A           G         D
And I talked to my brother and he didn't know

      D              A           G         D
And I talked to everybody that I knew
[Chorus]
     D          A         G   D
It's money that matters

        D              A     G   D
Now you know that it's true

     D          A         G   D
It's money that matters

    D        A    G   D
Whatever you do
[Verse 4]
       D           A/D     G/D  D
Then I talked to a man 

                D      A/D     G/D  D
Lived up on the county line

      D           A/D     G/D  D
I was washing his car 

       D         A/D     G/D  D
With a friend of mine
[Link]
         A                G C
He was a little fat guy 

     A             G C
In a red jumpsuit

            A                     G C
I said "That looks kind of funny"

           A                 G C
He said "I know it does, too"
[Verse 5]
D                       A            G           D
 "But I got a great big house on the hill here

D                 A             G         D
  And a great big blonde wife inside it

D                 A          G         D
  And a great big pool in my backyard 

D                   A      G         D
  Another great big pool beside it
[Chorus]
           D          A         G   D
Sonny it's money that matters, 

D           A    G   D
Hear what I say

     D          A         G   D
It's money that matters 

       D A    G   D
In the USA

     D          A         G   D
It's money that matters

        D              A    G   D
Now you know that it's true

     D          A         G   D
It's money that matters 

    D        A    G   D
Whatever you do"
