Tuning: E A D G B E
No real intro here, just crack a joke I guess. As far as the G chords he alters between the second
fret on the A string and D string. Listen to the track to get a feel. You can also play the G as a
G7 and it'll work too. It's a 3 chord song, so very easy,
fun to play and sing though. I hope you enjoy.
[Verse 1]
He tried to Glook like he had a little bit of money
A Cdrifter with a southern drawl
Well I could Gtell right away by the the way he was runnin'
That this Dboy was just beggin' to crawl
At least a junkie Gknows what he needs
CYou get a man all strung out on green
GHe'll give up everything he's got for just Done shot of having it Gall
GHe took every cent of his savings
COn a trip to the local track
He got a Gtip from a friend bet it all down to win
On a Dhorse named heart attack
Well now he Gain't no fool boys he didn't bet it all
So Ceverything was cool when that horse took a fall
But then he Gturned around and through the Drest down
Trying to win it Gback
[Chorus]
He wants that easy Cmoney
It's sad but it's Gtrue
Everybody wants the Dmost they can possibly get
For the Gleast they could possibly do
They want that easy Cmoney
I don't underGstand
If you scheme and you Dplan you can't get your hands
On that easy Gmoney
[Verse 2]
Now she's been watching Ghim from the table
Not to Csoft but not tough
She figured Gby the money he'd been throwing around
That he was Ddamned sure good looking enough
So she Gworked her way over she shot him a wink
He took his Clast five bucks and bought her a drink
By the Gtime they hit the motel sixD
They figured they were in Gloooove
[Chorus]
He wants that easy Cmoney
It's sad but it's Gtrue
Everybody wants the Dmost they can possibly get
For the Gleast they could possibly do
They want that easy Cmoney
I don't underGstand
If you scheme and you Dplan you can't get your hands
On that easy Gmoney
[Verse 3]
Now it must have Gbeen about two weeks later
He get a Ccall from a business friend
They got a Gsure fire steal of this big investment deal
And would you Dbelieve this, they're gonna let both of us in
So they Gtook all of their savings out of the bank
And on the Cway home they stopped to gas up the tank
She stepped Gin for some cigs and she Dnever saw that fucker again G
[Chorus]
He wants that easy Cmoney
It's sad but it's Gtrue
Everybody wants the Dmost they can possibly get
For the Gleast they could possibly do
They want that easy Cmoney
I don't underGstand
If you scheme and you Dplan you can't get your hands
On that easy Gmoney
[Extra]
CI know, it's only rock and roll but I Glike it
