Verse 1 :

My [E]older brother Tommy, was a l[A]ineman rest his so[E]ul
His j[A]ob was hanging hot w[E]ires, on them h[B]igh-line power po[E]les
Every m[A]orning bright and e[E]arly, he'd climb w[A]ay up in the s[E]ky
And I n[A]ever understo[E]od it, so one [B]day I asked him [E]why

Refrain :

He said it p[A]ays big m[E]oney, and [A]man I'm into t[E]hat
It p[A]ays big mo[E]ney, if you're w[B]illing to take a ch[E]ance
Let me t[A]ell you something, so[E]nny, you ought to [A]see my bank acc[E]ount
A E B | E - - G_F#_F | E - - G_F#_F |
It pays big money, but he sure can't spend it now

Verse 2 :

Well, [E]my late Uncle Charlie, was this [A]demolition h[E]ound
He'd tr[A]avel across the co[E]untry, blowin b[B]uildings to the gr[E]ound
He c[A]arried a case of dyn[E]amite seemed, e[A]verywhere he w[E]ent
And he sm[A]oked them big long c[E]igars and he'd w[B]ink at you and g[E]rin

Refrain :

And said it p[A]ays big m[E]oney, and [A]man I'm into t[E]hat
It p[A]ays big mo[E]ney, if you're w[B]illing to take a ch[E]ance
Let me t[A]ell you something, so[E]nny, you ought to [A]see my bank acc[E]ount
It p[A]ays big mo[E]ney, but he s[B]ure can't spend it n[E]ow

Bridge :

Well now the m[A7]oral of this st[E7]ory boys, is don't go g[A7]etting yourself k[E7]illed
Be k[A7]ind to your rich re[E7]latives, they just might p[B7]ut you in their [(]wi[E]ll[)]

Refrain :

And that p[A]ays big m[E]oney, yeah and [A]we're I'm into[E] that
And that p[A]ays big mo[E]ney, and big m[B]oney is where it's [E]at
Let me t[A]ell you something, so[E]nny, you ought to [A]see my bank acc[E]ount
It p[A]ays big mo[E]ney, and we're r[B]olling in it n[E]ow
