Verse 1:
         C                                         G
	I've spent a lifetime,making up my mind to be
                                                             C
	More than the measure of what i thought others could see
                                                            F
	Good luck and fast bucks are too far and too few between
          G                                          C
	Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers like me


Verse 2:
         C                                            G
	She stood beside me letting me know she would be
                                                        C
	Something to lean on when everything ran out on me
                                                                F
	Fenced yards ain't hole cards and like as not never will be
          G                                             C
	Reasons for rhymers and old five and dimers like me


Verse 3:
         C                                              G
	It's taken me so long but now that i know i believe
                                                     C
	All that i do or say is all that i ever will be
                                                           F
	Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to be
             G                                             C
	Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me

            G                                      C
	An old five and dimer was all i intented to be
