F C Am  

Bb                  F              C Am Bb F 
Ah, let me tell you 'bout my family... 
      C             Am  Bb F 
Daddy almost made a livin' 
        C           Am   Bb F 
With 80 acres and a plow 
          C                 Am    Bb   G 
He coulda bought that place twice over 
        Bb             F 
Workin' for someone in town 
 

F C  Am                        Bb    F 
Ahh, but you shoulda seen him... 
   C             Am      Bb   F 
In his fields at harvest time 
                C        Am     Bb     G 
You'd swear the gates of heaven opened 
           Bb                F 
And he was standin' first in line 
 
Refr?o -------------
F            C     Am      Bb    F 
You can't be in it For The Money 
      C         Am    Bb   C F 
Money comes and money goes 
             C     Am      Bb    G 
You can't be in it For The Money 
       Bb                 F    C Am Bb F 
Oh you gotta satisfy your soul
--------------------
  
F             C                   Am  Bb   F 
I grabbed the world when I turned eighteen 
            C          Am       Bb   F 
I turned it over and I shook it hard 
            C       Am      Bb    G 
I filled my pockets up with money 
       Bb                  F 
But it burned a hole right through my heart 
 
Chorus: 
F C Am Bb/ F C Am Bb/ F C Am Bb/ F C Am Bb/ G Bb F 
 
F             C            Am   Bb  F 
You know everybody's got a purpose 
     C                Am      Bb  F 
From mendin' bones to tendin' bar 
          C          Am        Bb  G 
You might say that I found mine 
 

            Bb                   F 
When I wrap my hands around this guitar 
Am                    Bb    Am 
I still wonder if I'm crazy 
                           C   Am 
Tryin' to bring a dream to life 
                      Bb       G 
But I look forward to tomorrow 
            Bb             F 
And I sleep pretty good at night 
 
Chorus:  
F            C     Am      Bb    F 
You can't be in it For The Money 
F            C     Am      Bb    F 
You can't be in it For The Money
