D A/D G/D D
D A/D G/D D
D A/D G/D D
Of all of the people
D A/D G/D D
That I used to know
D A/D G/D D
Most never adjusted
D A/D G/D D
To the great big world
D A G D
I see them lurking in book stores
D A G D
Working for the Public Radio
D A G D
Carrying their babies around in a sack on their back
D A G D
Moving careful and slow
D A G D
It's money that matters
D A G D
Hear what I say
D A G D
It's money that matters
D A G D
In the USA
Bm F#m G
All of these people are much brighter than I
Bm F#m G
In any fair system they would flourish and thrive
D/A
But they barely survive
A Bb? Bm A G D/F#
They eke out a living, they barely survive
A C
When I was a young boy,
A C
Maybe thirteen
A C
I took a hard look around me
A C
And asked what does it mean?
D A G D
So I talked to my father, and he didn't know
D A G D
And I talked to my friend and he didn't know
D A G D
And I talked to my brother and he didn't know
D A G D
And I talked to everybody that I knew
D A G D
It's money that matters
D A G D
Now you know that it's true
D A G D
It's money that matters
D A G D
Whatever you do
D A/D G/D D
Then I talked to a man
D A/D G/D D
Lived up on the county line
D A/D G/D D
I was washing his car
D A/D G/D D
With a friend of mine
A G C
He was a little fat guy
A G C
In a red jumpsuit
A G C
I said "That looks kind of funny"
A G C
He said "I know it does, too"
D A G D
"But I got a great big house on the hill here
D A G D
And a great big blonde wife inside it
D A G D
And a great big pool in my backyard
D A G D
Another great big pool beside it
D A G D
Sonny it's money that matters,
D A G D
Hear what I say
D A G D
It's money that matters
D A G D
In the USA
D A G D
It's money that matters
D A G D
Now you know that it's true
D A G D
It's money that matters
D A G D
Whatever you do"
