Old Five and Dimers Like Me Tom T. Hall
INTRO: F C G
[C]I've spent the lifetime making up my mind to [G]be,
[G]more than the measure of what I thought others
could [C]see.
[C]Good luck and [G]fast bucks they're [C]too few and [C7]too
far be[F]tween.
There's [G]Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers
like [C]me.
[C]She stood beside me letting me know she would [G]be,
[G]something to lean on when everything ran out on [C]me.
[C]Well, fenced yards ain't hole cards and like as not
never will [F]be..the [G]reason for rhymers and old five
and dimers like [C]me.
INTERLUDE: G F C F C G
Well, it's [C]taken me so long now, that I know I be[G]lieve,
[G]all that I do or say is all I ever will [C]be.
[C]Too far and too high and too deep ain't [C7]too much to [F]see.
[G]Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like [C]me.
An [G]old five and dimer is all I intended to [C]be.[F]
OUTRO:
[C]You know country people don't shine their boots very
often.[F]
And they don't shine [C]other folks' boots either.[G]
[C]thank you.
