Greenback Dollar chords
The Kingston Trio

Em
Some people say I'm a no count

Others say I'm no good 

but I'm just a natural born traveling man
D                    Em
doin' what I think I should, oh yea
D                    Em
Doin' what I think I should

      G            C            G         C
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar
G        C         G    C
Spend it fast as a can
      G       C      G    C
But a wailing song a good guitar 
    D                      Em
The only thing that I understand, poor boy
    D                      Em
The only thing that I understand

When I was a little baby
My Mama said hey son
Travel where you will and learn to be a man
and sing what must be sung, poor boy 
Sing what must be sung

      G            C            G         C
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar
G        C         G    C
Spend it fast as a can
      G       C      G    C
But a wailing song a good guitar 
    D                      Em
The only thing that I understand, poor boy
    D                      Em
The only thing that I understand

Now that I've grown to be a man 
I've traveled here and there
I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song
the only ones who ever cared, poor boy
the only one's who ever cared

      G            C            G         C
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar
G        C         G    C
Spend it fast as a can
      G       C      G    C
But a wailing song a good guitar 
    D                      Em
The only thing that I understand, poor boy

    D                      Em
The only thing that I understand
