This song is mainly finger-picked 
the whole way through.

==CHORUS==
Dm               G         
Gonna get what's mine and wild 
C     G                          Am
horses couldn't keep it from me.
Dm                      G        
Papa says I'm a golden child and 
     C    G                        
the whole world's gonna fall at my 
Am
feet.
Dm    G            Am
It's all coming to me.
`
`
==VERSE==
Am                                
Going down picking when it's 
harvest time, gonna get my share, 
                     C
gonna get what's mine for me.
Am                                
Sun is a-blazing down but I don't 
mind; I'm picking, I'm digging, it's
              C
 harvest time for me.
F                    C           
When I get my little eye on it, 
Dm                    G          
when I get my little mind on it, 
           Am
you best believe.
`
`
==VERSE==
Am                                
Ole sweet tooth aching in my head,
 gonna fill my belly to the brim, oh
      C
 yes indeed!

Am                                
Hive is a-buzzing in a hollow tree
 and I don't care if I gotta kill a 
         C
little honeybee.
F                    C           
When I get my little eye on it, 
Dm                    G          
when I get my little mind on it, 
           Am
you best believe.
F    C    Dm      G            
Oh my my my my my my, it's all 
       Am
coming to me.

==CHORUS==
Dm               G         
Gonna get what's mine and wild 
C     G                          Am
horses couldn't keep it from me.

It's all coming to me.

==VERSE==
Am                                
Pumpin' and a-suckin' till the 
well is dry, nobody's booming in 
                    C
these busted times like me.
Am                                
Down in Texas where the cattle 
don't roam oil is a-dripping and the
                       C
 savings and loans, they bleed.
F                    C           
When I get my little eye on it, 
Dm                    G          
when I get my little mind on it, 
           Am
you best believe.
F    C    Dm      G            
Oh my my my my my my, it's all 
       Am
coming to me.
