Capo up somewhere between 3 and 5.
"Loose Change," by Andrew Peterson
C G
I?d give you all of me to know what you were thinking
C A7 D
And if I had one wish, I?d wish I wasn?t sinking here
C? Em
Drowning in this well
A
Oh, can?t you tell
C G
That I can?t pick myself up off the ground
D
Well, I?ve been face down
G B7
And pushed aside
C G
Well, you know I?d rather just turn tail and run
D
Than lie here in the sun
C? Em
And watch you pass me by
D C
Cause I ain?t worth a dime
(Yeah yeah ... oh yeah...)
G/B D/A G/B C G/B D
Chorus:
C G
But if only I could stand up straight,
D G
I wouldn?t have to lie and wait
C G
I?d get up and roll away
D
And never be ignored
C G
I?ve got a feeling that I?m something more
D G
Than just a piece of copper ore
C G
Turning green and looking for
D
The reason I was born
C G
Well, I?ve been around since 1964
D
In banks and bottom drawers
G B7
And on railroad ties
C
I?ve been passed around and cast aside
G
Skipped and flipped and flattened wide
D C? Em D
Spun around and thrown away and left alone to lie
[Chorus]
G C G
But I heard about a penny found
D G
Lying underneath the couch
C G
By a woman who was kneeling down
D
Looking for some change
C G
Then the woman danced around
D G
And called her friends all over town
C G
Told ?em what was lost is found
D
It?s another penny saved
C
So I find that all this time
D/B
Beneath the surface, I could shine
D C? Em D
Like all the gold a king and queen could measure
C D G
You see, even just a penny is a treasure
