F5 C5 A5  

Bb5                  F5              C5 A5 Bb5 F5 
Ah, let me tell you 'bout my family... 
      C5             A5  Bb5 F5 
Daddy almost made a livin' 
        C5           A5   Bb5 F5 
With 80 acres and a plow 
          C5                 A5    Bb5   G5 
He coulda bought that place twice over 
        Bb5             F5 
Workin' for someone in town 
 

F5 C5  A5                        Bb5    F5 
Ahh, but you shoulda seen him... 
   C5             A5      Bb5   F5 
In his fields at harvest time 
                C5        A5     Bb5     G5 
You'd swear the gates of heaven opened 
           Bb5                F5 
And he was standin' first in line 
 
Refr?o -------------
F5            C5     A5      Bb5    F5 
You can't be in it For The Money 
      C5         A5    Bb5   C5 F5 
Money comes and money goes 
             C5     A5      Bb5    G5 
You can't be in it For The Money 
       Bb5                 F5    C5 A5 Bb5 F5 
Oh you gotta satisfy your soul
--------------------
  
F5             C5                   A5  Bb5   F5 
I grabbed the world when I turned eighteen 
            C5          A5       Bb5   F5 
I turned it over and I shook it hard 
            C5       A5      Bb5    G5 
I filled my pockets up with money 
       Bb5                  F5 
But it burned a hole right through my heart 
 
Chorus: 
F5 C5 A5 Bb/ F5 C5 A5 Bb/ F5 C5 A5 Bb/ F5 C5 A5 Bb/ G5 Bb5 F5 
 
F5             C5            A5   Bb5  F5 
You know everybody's got a purpose 
     C5                A5      Bb5  F5 
From mendin' bones to tendin' bar 
          C5          A5        Bb5  G5 
You might say that I found mine 
 

            Bb5                   F5 
When I wrap my hands around this guitar 
A5                    Bb5    A5 
I still wonder if I'm crazy 
                           C5   A5 
Tryin' to bring a dream to life 
                      Bb5       G5 
But I look forward to tomorrow 
            Bb5             F5 
And I sleep pretty good at night 
 
Chorus:  
F5            C5     A5      Bb5    F5 
You can't be in it For The Money 
F5            C5     A5      Bb5    F5 
You can't be in it For The Money
