Chords with lyrics

SONG: PENNY TO MY NAME

VERSE 1
C majorC            FF
Bill and I got married following our first-born
DmDm           A minorAm         G+G
Daddy left this gas and convenience store just before he died
C majorC               FF
And I was only nineteen when I had my third baby
DmDm               G+G          C majorC
Sometimes I think maybe I should have left here long ago

VERSE 2
C majorC			 FF
Travelers are stopping by check their oil and their P.S.I.
DmDm			 A minorAm		 G+G
Gas up and away they fly moving down the line
C majorC
But this beat up truck and worn out shoes
FF
Always giving me the blues
DmDm			   G+G
Bill is sucking down the booze nearly every night

CHORUS:
FF         G+G      C majorC       FF
I've never seen the city lights how they must shine so bright
C majorC       FF        D MajorD        G+G
Not like this country night the sky's black as coal
FF          G+G
And this gas station mountain home
C majorC       FF
Not a thing to call my own
C majorC      FF      D MajorD   G+G   C majorC
I wish I was alone with a penny to my name

VERSE 3
C majorC				  FF
Strangers say this mountain here is beautiful beyond compare
DmDm					 A minorAm		G+G
But it's just a dumb old mountain there I see it every day
C majorC				  FF
If I could see a sunset skies over fields of grain or ocean tides
DmDm				  G+G
City skyline in the night I'll be dancing till the dawn

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 4

C majorC			FF
Bill and I got married following our first-born
DmDm			A minorAm		  G+G
Daddy left this gas and convenience store just before he died
C majorC			   FF
Maybe Bill and I someday will find a chance to get away
DmDm				G+G
Until then it's here I'll stay wishing on a star


 REPEAT CHORUS:
