Tom: F

F C Am 
Bb                   F              C Am Bb F
Ah, let me tell you 'bout my family...
      C             Am  Bb F
Daddy almost made a livin'
        C           Am   Bb F
With 80 acres and a plow
          C                 Am    Bb   G
He coulda bought that place twice over
        Bb             F
Workin' for someone in town

F C 
Am                        Bb    F
Ahh, but you shoulda seen him...
   C             Am      Bb   F
In his fields at harvest time
                C        Am     Bb     G
You'd swear the gates of heaven opened
           Bb                F
And he was standin' first in line

[Chorus]
F            C     Am      Bb    F
You can't be in it For The Money
      C         Am    Bb   C F
Money comes and money goes
             C     Am      Bb    G
You can't be in it For The Money
       Bb                 F    C Am Bb F
Oh you gotta satisfy your soul
 
F             C                   Am  Bb   F
I grabbed the world when I turned eighteen
            C          Am       Bb   F
I turned it over and I shook it hard
            C       Am      Bb    G
I filled my pockets up with money
       Bb                  F
But it burned a hole right through my heart

[Chorus]
F C Am Bb, F C Am Bb, F C Am Bb, F C Am Bb, G Bb F

F             C            Am   Bb  F
You know everybody's got a purpose
     C                Am      Bb  F
From mendin' bones to tendin' bar
          C          Am        Bb  G
You might say that I found mine

            Bb                   F
When I wrap my hands around this guitar

Am                    Bb    Am
I still wonder if I'm crazy
                           C   Am
Tryin' to bring a dream to life
                      Bb       G
But I look forward to tomorrow
            Bb             F
And I sleep pretty good at night

[Chorus]
F            C     Am      Bb    F
You can't be in it For The Money
F            C     Am      Bb    F
You can't be in it For The Money
