[Verse 1]
G C D D
Johnny Baker works down at the mill
G C
Makes enough to make ends meet
D
And pay his bills
Em C
Even though he comes from
D Em
The wrong side of the tracks
Am G
He's the first one there to lend a hand
D
Or give the shirt right off his back
[Chorus]
C D G
From what we give we make a living
Em D C
those dollars diamonds and gold
G
But that old cliche is a given
Am D
You reap what you sow
C D G
When you reach out your hand and your heart
Bm Em D
Then your soul is satisfied
C D G
From what we give we make a living
C D G
From what we give we make a life
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
G C D D
Mr. Miller's got a mansion on the hill-ill
G C
He spent his whole life chasing
D
That almighty dollar bill
Em C
But all his so-called riches
D Em
Somethings missing in his soul
Am G
It takes more than havin' everything
D
To make a man feel whole
[Chorus]
C D G
From what we give we make a living
Em D C
those dollars diamonds and gold
G
But that old cliche is a given
Am D
You reap what you sow
C D G
When you reach out your hand and your heart
Bm Em D
Then your soul is satisfied
C D G
From what we give we make a living
C D G
From what we give we make a life
[Solo]

When you reach out your hand and your heart
