Bb Cm Gm Eb Bb
[Verse 1]
When Dad would play his old guitar
Cm
He used to rant and rave
Eb
Though he hardly had two dimes
F
He would tell me what God gave
Cm Gm
We'd all dance around the room
Eb F
When he would sing and play
Bb Cm
When people said he was poor
Eb Bb
He said, "I'm rich in another way"
Cm Eb Bb
[Verse 2]
I went to school and I smelled of smoke
Cm
And my jeans were hand-me-down
Eb
I had patches sewn onto patches
F
We had a single-wide outside of town
Cm Gm
My daddy took me bar to bar
Eb F
To get me where I am today
Bb Cm
People said I was poor
Eb Bb
But I was rich in another way
Cm
When people said we were poor
Eb Bb
We were rich in another way
Cm Gm Eb F Bb
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Cm Eb
Rich in another way
Bb Cm Gm Eb F Bb Cm Eb Bb
[Verse 3]
Well, Daddy's got his wings these days
Eb
And his children are all grown
We don't worry 'bout money no more
F
With all the things we own
Bb
Still, the finest things we ever had
Cm
Was to never have a thing
Eb
So wherever life may take us
F
We would always live like kings
Cm Gm
You know, it wouldn't mean a thing to me
Eb F
If I lost it all today
Bb Cm
When people said we were poor
Eb Bb
We were rich in another way
Cm
When people said we were poor
Eb Bb
You know, we were rich in another way
