[Intro]
A C# F#m D A D A
[Verse 1]
A
When I was a young man many years ago
A
I signed my name on the dotted line
E A
It was a five-album deal
A
I figured my fate was sealed
F#m E A
It turns out I only got one try
[Verse 2]
A
And although I left them deep in debt
A
Every now and then I get a little check
E
Usually I don't pay it any mind
A
Oh but right now times are hard
A
So I sit out in my car
F#m E A
And wait for the mailman to come by
[Chorus]
F#m E A D
And I got a six dollar check from Warner Brothers
F#m E A D
I will take you down to the bar on the corner
F#m E A D
Where the, where the whiskey is Jim Beam
F#m E A D
I got enough to cover my friend and me
F#m E A
That's how I spend my six dollar check
[Interlude]
F#m A D A F#m A D E A
[Verse 3]
A D
Now people started noticing the good mood I was in
A E
And all of the sudden I found myself a few new friends
A
And I just kept wishing that that check had been for ten
F#m A
I was getting thirsty talking to them
[Verse 4]
A
Later when I went home, I took a look in the fridge
E
And all of the sudden I had myself a different wish
A
I should have bought a loaf of bread instead of those shots of gin
F#m E A
That's okay, I always wanted to be thin
[Chorus]
F#m E A D
And I got a six dollar check from Warner Brothers
F#m E A D
I will take you down to the bar on the corner
F#m E A D
Where the, where the whiskey is Jim Beam
F#m E A D
I got enough to cover my friend and me
F#m E A
That's how I spend my six dollar check
A
Alright
[Interlude]
F#m A D A F#m A D E
A C# F#m D A D A
[Verse 5]
A D
Now I'm not sure if anybody works there anymore
A E
They've got a lister at the door but he's just for show
A D
Oh and if there's anybody left
A
I'm pretty sure they do regret
F#m E A
The day they let this cowboy go
[Chorus]
F#m E A D
And I got a six dollar check from Warner Brothers
F#m E A D
I will take you down to the bar on the corner
F#m E A D
Where the, where the whiskey is Jim Beam
F#m E A D
I got enough to cover my friend and me
F#m E A
That's how I spend my six dollar check
[Outro]
