Chords with lyrics
Capo up somewhere between 3 and 5.
"Loose Change," by Andrew Peterson
G+G
I’d give you all of me to know what you were thinking
D MajorD
And if I had one wish, I’d wish I wasn’t sinking here
E minorEm
Drowning in this well
A augmentedA
Oh, can’t you tell
G+G
That I can’t pick myself up off the ground
D MajorD
Well, I’ve been face down
B7B7
And pushed aside
G+G
Well, you know I’d rather just turn tail and run
D MajorD
Than lie here in the sun
E minorEm
And watch you pass me by
C majorC
Cause I ain’t worth a dime
(Yeah yeah ... oh yeah...)
D MajorD
Chorus:
G+G
But if only I could stand up straight,
G+G
I wouldn’t have to lie and wait
G+G
I’d get up and roll away
D MajorD
And never be ignored
G+G
I’ve got a feeling that I’m something more
G+G
Than just a piece of copper ore
G+G
Turning green and looking for
D MajorD
The reason I was born
G+G
Well, I’ve been around since 1964
D MajorD
In banks and bottom drawers
B7B7
And on railroad ties
C majorC
I’ve been passed around and cast aside
G+G
Skipped and flipped and flattened wide
D MajorD
Spun around and thrown away and left alone to lie
[Chorus]
G+G
But I heard about a penny found
G+G
Lying underneath the couch
G+G
By a woman who was kneeling down
D MajorD
Looking for some change
G+G
Then the woman danced around
G+G
And called her friends all over town
G+G
Told ‘em what was lost is found
D MajorD
It’s another penny saved
C majorC
So I find that all this time
D/B
Beneath the surface, I could shine
D MajorD
Like all the gold a king and queen could measure
G+G
