SONG: PENNY TO MY NAME
VERSE 1
ABill and I got married fCollowing our first-born
EmDaddy left this gas and Emconvenience store jAust before he died
AAnd I was only nineteen when I Chad my third baby
EmSometimes I think maybe I shouldA have left here long Aago
VERSE 2
A C
Travelers are stopping by check their oil and their P.S.I.
Em Em A
Gas up and away they fly moving down the line
ABut this beat up truck and worn out shoes
CAlways giving me the blues
Em A
Bill is sucking down the booze nearly every night
CHORUS:
CI've never seen theA city lights Ahow they must sChine so bright
ANot like this Ccountry night theA sky's black as cAoal
CAnd this gas station Amountain home
ANot a thing to Ccall my own
AI wish I was Calone with a Apenny Ato my Aname
VERSE 3
A C
Strangers say this mountain here is beautiful beyond compare
Em Em A
But it's just a dumb old mountain there I see it every day
A C
If I could see a sunset skies over fields of grain or ocean tides
Em A
City skyline in the night I'll be dancing till the dawn
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 4
A C
Bill and I got married following our first-born
Em Em A
Daddy left this gas and convenience store just before he died
A C
Maybe Bill and I someday will find a chance to get away
Em A
Until then it's here I'll stay wishing on a star
REPEAT CHORUS:
END
