Old Five And Dimers Like Me

A                                 
I've spent a lifetime making up my
         E
 mind to be
E                             
More than the measure of what I 
                       A
thought others could see
A                                
Good luck and fast bucks are too 
A7                D
far and too few between
E                              
Cadillac buyers and old five and 
              A
dimers like me


Continues after the ad
She stood beside me, letting me know
 she would be
Something to lean on when everything
 ran out on me
Fenced yards ain't hole cards and, 
like as not, never will be
Reasons for rhymers and old five and
 dimers like me


Instrumental break


It's taken me so long but now that I
 know, I believe
All that I do or say is all that I 
ever will be
Too much ain't enough for old five 
and dimers like me
Too far and too high and too deep 
ain't too much to see
An old five and dimer was all I 
intended to be
