C D G
She was hanging at the hard and fast saloon
D
He was due to go on break real soon
C G D
She set the trap and she laid out all the bait
G
He had a room at the hungry heart motel
D
He was a guitar picker so what the hell
C D G D
She knew that he could hardly wait
G
She gave him a look as he stepped off the stand
D
Walked up to the bar and took hold of his hand
C G D
She was sipping on a drink that some poor cowboy bought
G
She told him he was better than Willie or Hag
D
And she was only one payment behind on her Jag
C G
Then she rolled her eyes and asked him what he thought
C D
And he said
Am
Money talks and bullshit walks
Bm
And everything I own you could put in a box
C D
All my money ever said to me was so long
C D
All my bullshit ever did was get me walked on
Am C
And left me up there singing the same old song of loving her right
G C D
And doing her wrong, baby
G
Everybody wants to be somebody
D Am C
Everybody wants to have somebody, but please
Em
Listen to me honey
G
I?m living proof that love?ll kill you
D Am C
And I ain?t the one that?s gonna fulfill your needs
D
I ain?t in it for the money
G
I?m not in it for the money
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
Em C G G Em C D G
