I'll Trade You Money For Wine by Robbie Fulks
I'll Trade You Money For Wine
Capo 6 to play along with the recording.
The first three Em chords shift to an Em7 on the way to the Am.
I hit a G (note, not the whole chord) right before the Am as well.
Intro: Em Am Em Am Em Am G D Em
Em Am
Corn in the crib won’t turn your dollar green
Em Am
A dollar won’t get you high
Em Am
Some days a drop is all a body needs
G D Em
Some days the bottle drains dry
CHORUS:
Em Am
Pockets of change don’t drive my worry down
Em Am
Diamonds don’t make me shine
Em Am
It’s a short life and a long time underground
G D Em
I’ll trade you money for wine

Em Am Em Am Em Am G D Em
Em Am
I’ve seen this town from a long black Lincoln, boys
Em Am
Back when copper was king
Em Am
Ten years I stood on the same street corner, boys
G D Em
I never want for a thing
CHORUS
Em Am Em Am Em Am G D Em
Em Am
Wild were the nights when I was rolling, boys
Em Am
No hunger unsatisfied
Em Am
Feared was my name in Elko County, boys
G D Em
Now they just walk on by
Em Am
The banker, he spares a quarter for my cup
Em Am
His trouble’s deeper than mine
Em Am
That way of life, boys, there ain’t gold enough
G D Em
I’ll trade you money for wine
Em Am Em Am Em Am G D Em
Em Am
See how the rain washes the sulfur dust
Em Am
Off to the wide blue sea
Em Am
Freed from the rock, the copper flies to where
G D Em
No miner ever may see
Em Am
Shallow your cares, in vain your industry
Em Am
So says the wide blue sea
Em Am
I never burdened God on your account
G D Em
Don’t waste your prayers on me
Em Am Em Am Em Am G D Em
Em Am Em Am Em Am G D Em
Em Am
I’ve seen a man of wealth and family
Em Am
Scrimp till his hair’s gone grey
Em Am
Laid in the ground just like I’m gonna be
G D Em
He might have drunk it away
CHORUS
