Shoebox Money Chords

[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
Well I started off early just cuttin’ grass
G
Then I was throwin’ suds on my neighbors Cadillac
C
Dinnertime came and I was haulin’ scrap
G
Bout dead tired by the time I got back
      D                        C
Had a couple fresh 20s burnin’ holes in my pockets
     G
So I threw em in the closet in an old shoebox
 
 
[Chorus]
C
It didn’t have much in it
       G
But it did me better than the shoes in em
    D
I’d pinch them pennies all summer long
G
Then one day they’d all be gone
    C
I’d save up a bunch of twenties, tens, and fives
         G                  C
Then I’d blow it all at one time
      G
Nah I didn’t have to need it, I got it if I wanted
D                          C       G
Spendin’ every bit of that shoebox money
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
Well a few years later, as the story goes
G
I heard a somethin’ playin’ on the radio
   C
It made me wanna go and buy a microphone
  G
I sat down and wrote my first country song
  D                               C
I didn’t really need to think too much about it
          G
Just went to the closet and pulled the shoebox down
 
 
[Chorus]
C
It didn’t have much in it
       G
But it did me better than the shoes in em
    D
I’d pinch them pennies all summer long
G
Then one day they’d all be gone
    C
I’d save up a bunch of twenties, tens, and fives
         G                  C
Then I’d blow it all at one time
      G
Nah I didn’t have to need it, I got it if I wanted
D                          C       G
Spendin’ every bit of that shoebox money
