[Verse 1]

          G                             D
There's a penny on the floor and you're gone,
     C           G
the television's on.
           D                           C
Have you found another man to take my place.

          G                          D
There's a penny on the floor and I'm wise,
   C                 G
I try to see in your eyes.
     D                               C
But all I see is a reflection of my face.

[Verse 2]

          G                             D
There's a penny on the floor and you're gone,
     C                     G
I'm trying to right what's wrong.
    D                                 C
A stronger man might do it with more grace.

          G                          D
There's a penny on the floor and I'm wise,
   C              G
I look up to the skies.
  D                                  C
I cry and pray, and I stare out into space.


[Chorus]

          G
There's a penny on the floor,
             D
and you're standing at the door
Em                   C
turn around and say goodbye.
G                       D                  C
A woman like you comes around just once a life.

[Verse 3]

          G                          D
There's a penny on the floor and I'm strong.
     C            G
I'll try to carry on,
D                              C
Realizing no one can take your place.
          G                          D
There's a penny on the floor and I'm fine.
  C                         G
I know it's gonna take some time
           D                                   C
Before I look at you without looking at my own face.


[Bridge]

              C    C                  D   D
Penny on the floor...I'm tired of the war...
               C   C                  D   D


[Verse 4]

          G                          D
There's a penny on the floor and it stays,
         C          G
as a tribute to the days
           D
That were spent with you,
                       C
no one can take them away.
G                                       D
There's a penny on the floor and it stays,
          C         G
as a tribute to the ways
           D                           C
You filled my soul with courage, hope and grace.


[Outro]

          G
There's a penny on the floor,
            D
and you're standing at the door
Em                   C
turn around and say goodbye.
  G                    D
A woman like you comes around...
    C                     D    G
who won't bring me down.
