Singing For The Money by Jason Nix
Singing For The Money
Key:G
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
G C G [x2]
[Verse]
G C G C G
Before I started singing for the money
G C G C G
I wore these fingers out on rusted strings
Em C G C G
On the corner of an old hand me down mattress
G C G C G
Thin enough to feel the broken springs
G C G C G
I didn’t need the smokes and the attention
G C G C G
I didn’t need the whiskey or the wine
Em C G C G
Before I started singing for the money
G C G
It’s like every song I ever sang was mine
[Chorus]
C
But here’s to the good life
G
Getting lost in a good time
D
Taking off on a long ride
G
And coming up with a good rhyme
C
But there’s always two sides
Em
To the truth that you can’t hide
D
To the blade of a sharp knife
G C G
Hey! Maybe that’s alright
G G C G
Here’s to the good life
G C G
[Verse]
G C G C G
Before I started looking in the mirror
G C G C G
Didn’t have to practice how to smile
Em C G C G
Felt like I dumped a boxcar or some freight train
G C G
And rode the dream at least a thousand miles
[Chorus]
C
But here’s to the good life
G
Getting lost in a good time
D
Taking off on a long ride
G
And coming up with a good rhyme
C
But there’s always two sides
Em
To the truth that you can’t hide
D
To the blade of a sharp knife
G C G
Hey! Maybe that’s alright
G G C G
Here’s to the good life
[Break]
Em C G
Didn’t need to know where I was going
Em C G
Back when just believing was enough
Em C G
Yeah! Before I started singing for the money
G C G
It’s like I knew exactly who I was
[Chorus]
C
But here’s to the good life
Em
Getting lost in a good time
D
Taking off on a long ride
G
And coming up with a good rhyme
C
But there’s always two sides
Em
To the truth that you can’t hide
D
To the blade of a sharp knife
G C G
Hey! Maybe that’s alright
G G C G
Here’s to the good life
G G C G
Here’s to the good life
