D
As sad as it may seem

       Am
I call pennies in between

      D               C               D 
These cushions a good means of saving dimes
I never claimed that I'd be rich
      Am
Never said I would try

           D              C                D
But I live well enough to eat and Ill live long enough to die

D        
So dont sell what you can keep 

         Am
sell it high or sell it cheap

           D                C
For you'll miss it just the same, 

              D
poor boy poor me

D
Well my mother's a millionaire now

Am

             D               C                D
so i skipped town hopin' somehow to drown it out

D
And im sure some day ill hit it big as well

     Am                               D

C                    D

For you'll miss it just the same,

They say the devil will take your soul

They say this world aint no place to call home 

   D                 C                D
I dont know, I often pay it all no mind

D
And as sad as it may seem

         Am
I called pennies in between

        D               C                D
these cushions a good means of saving dimes

D        
So dont sell what you can keep 

         Am

For you'll miss it just the same, 

              D
