INTRO
| D A/D | G/D D |
| D A/D | G/D D |
Of [D]all of the [A/D]people [G/D][D]
That [D]I used to [A/D]know[G/D][D]
Most [D]never ad[A/D]justed [G/D][D]
To the [D]great big [A/D]world[G/D][D]
I see them [D]lurking in [A]book stores[G][D]
[D]Working for the [A]Public Radio[G][D]
Carrying their [D]babies a[A]round in a [G]sack on their [D]back
Moving [D]careful and [A]slow[G][D]
It's [D]money that [A]matters[G][D]
[D]Hear what I [A]say[G][D]
It's [D]money that [A]matters[G][D]
In the [D]US[A]A[G][D]
[Bm]All of these people are much [F#m]brighter than [G]I
In [Bm]any fair system they would [F#m]flourish and [G]thrive
But they barely sur[D/A]vive
They eke out a [A]living, they [Bbdim]barely sur[Bm]vive[A][G][D/F#]
When [A]I was a young boy, [C]
[A]Maybe thirteen[C]
I took a [A]hard look around me [C]
And asked [A]what does it mean?[C]
So I [D]talked to my [A]father, and [G]he didn't [D]know
And I [D]talked to my [A]friend and [G]he didn't [D]know
And I [D]talked to my [A]brother and [G]he didn't [D]know
And I [D]talked to every[A]body that I [G]knew[D]
It's [D]money that [A]matters[G][D]
Now you [D]know that it's [A]true[G][D]
It's [D]money that [A]matters[G][D]
What[D]ever you [A]do[G][D]
Then I [D]talked to a [A/D]man [G/D][D]
Lived up on the [D]county [A/D]line[G/D][D]
I was [D]washing his [A/D]car [G/D][D]
With a [D]friend of [A/D]mine[G/D][D]
He was a [A]little fat guy [G][C]
In a [A]red jumpsuit[G][C]
I said "That[A] looks kind of funny"[G][C]
He said "I [A]know it does, too"[G][C]
[D] "But I got a great big [A]house on the [G]hill here[D]
[D] And a great big [A]blonde wife in[G]side it[D]
[D] And a great big [A]pool in my [G]backyard [D]
[D] Another great big [A]pool be[G]side it[D]
Sonny it's [D]money that [A]matters, [G][D]
[D]Hear what I [A]say[G][D]
It's [D]money that [A]matters [G][D]
In the [D]US[A]A[G][D]
It's [D]money that [A]matters[G][D]
Now you [D]know that it's [A]true[G][D]
It's [D]money that [A]matters [G][D]
What[D]ever you [A]do"[G][D]
