[Verse 1]
Em G A B
When I was just a boy my granddaddy took me to town one afternoon.
Em G A C
He drove an LTD, wore a big white Stetson and two-toned cowboy boots.
Em G A B
He said, 'Son, here you go,' as he handed me a twenty just to see the look on my face.
Em (stop) B
He said, 'Don't tell your momma nothing about it, don't spend it all in one place.'
See it takes

[Verse 3] (hi-hat and vocals only)
It's a pain in the back, it's a cold hard fact, it gets to everybody sooner or later
You can give it to a charity, ending some disparity or stock up your refrigerator
Em G A B
You can marry it or bet it it'll kill you if you let it you can blow it with nothing to show

It'll make your wallet fatter but the truth of the matters can't take it with you when you go
Better spend a little
