Intro
C  F C  F C   (4x)

verse 1

Before I went to jail
           F                       C
When I was sayin' that I was free

You was lined up down the avenue
              G
Just about as far as I could see
        F
You got one eye on my dungarees
                    C
And another on my reviews

And a third one on the waitress
        G                    C
She was straightenin' up the pews

        F
She was passin' around a basket
                       C
She was wipin' off the spoon
                        G              F                        C
She was readin' the handwriting on the moon (handwriting on the moon)


verse 2

You call yourself a handyman
           F                  C
You can do anything with your hands

Telling me about your family
G
Telling me about your plans
           F
Yeah, well I ain't got the belly for this
                      C
And you ain't got the brains

And if you emptied out all of your pockets, honey
    G                  C
You could not make the change

          F
She keeps passin' around that basket
                          C
You keep droppin' in your dues
                           G              F                        C
Instead of readin' the handwriting on the moon (handwriting on the moon)

verse 3
F
Mine sure ain't the belly
                           C
And I know yours ain't the brains

And if you emptied out all your pockets, honey
    G                  C
You could not make the change

If you emptied out all of your pockets, baby
    G                  F     C
You could not make the change___
