Verse 1:
    E MajorE       BB
Making money, it isn't easy
    E MajorE     E7/G#    A augmentedA
And it sure won't make you happy
        E MajorE
So I think it's funny
       BB        A augmentedA  E/G# F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
We're so concerned with making money

Verse 2:
     E MajorE           BB
And money won't keep folks from grieving
    E MajorE     E7/G#    A augmentedA
And it won't stop love from leaving
       E/B
So here's my two cents
      BB       A augmentedA  E/G# F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
What's the use in making money


Chorus:
   A augmentedA       BB   C#m7C#m7
And I know that life ain't cheap
    A augmentedA        BB    E MajorE
And not all good things are free
       A augmentedA   BB    B#dimB#dim   C#m7C#m7
But there is no enough and no too much
    F#7/A#       F#m7F#m7
And it seems so strange to me
          E/B
I just think it's funny
       BB         A augmentedA  E/G# F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
We're so concerned with making money


Verse 3:
      E MajorE       BB
I make my living singing love songs
    E MajorE   E7/G#    A augmentedA
That I made up 'cause I love songs
       E/B
But folks believe 'em
      BB      A augmentedA  E/G# F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
So I'm receivin' paper money

Verse 4:
       E MajorE        BB
Don't get me wrong, I love my lady
    E MajorE   E7/G#    BB
And I prob'ly wouldn't trade her
       E/B
But life's no better
       BB        A augmentedA  E/G# F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
With debts or debtors making money


Chorus:

   A augmentedA       BB   C#m7C#m7
And I know that life ain't cheap
    A augmentedA        BB    E MajorE
And not all good things are free
       A augmentedA   BB    B#dimB#dim   C#m7C#m7
But there is no enough and no too much
    F#7/A#       F#m7F#m7
And it seems so strange to me
          E/B
I just think it's funny
       BB         A augmentedA  E/G# F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
We're so concerned with making money

Verse 5:
   E MajorE        BB
Everybody's got their reasons
   E MajorE    E7/G#  A augmentedA
Finer wines or fairer seasons
     E/B
If we're truthful
       BB        A augmentedA   E/G# F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
We know we're fools for making money
