G  C  D  G 

verse 1 
                   C 
I slammed shut the old door 
  G                 D 
I walked across the cold floor 
           G              C             G               D 
Grabbed my banjo from the corner and my fiddle from the bed 
G              C 
Tired of being so poor 
G             D 
I could eat a dinosaur 
     G                C              D            G    C  G  D  G 
It’s hard to feel the music when you feel so underfed 


verse 2 
              C 
I left down a dark lane 
  G                D 
I looked through a window pane 
G              C                 G               D 
Saw rich folks sleeping on their satin and their lace 
G               C 
Folks who never felt the rain 
G               D 
Folks who never jumped a train 
G               C          D     G     C  G  D  G 
Folks who never slept on a banjo case 

 
                          F              G 
Oh, Momma and Dad passed away when I was little 
                         F              G 
Momma left the banjo and Daddy left the fiddle 
                        F         C 
They both left me their Tennessee touch___ 
           G              F          C          G      
And I said thank you very much, very much, very much

verse 3 
  G            C 
I headed for a pawn shop 
  G                  D 
I thought I’d make a quick swap 
        G        C               G          D 
I would trade my future for some cash in my pocket 
  G             C 
Before I got to make my drop 
G               D 
Something eerie made me stop 
    G          C         D              G       C  G  D  G 
And bring that fiddle to my chin like a rocket 


verse 4 
                      C 
The sound grew like a bad weed  
    G             D 
And leaped like a swift steed 
       G       C              G                    D 
Like a runaway wagon, it went coursing through the air 
  G                C 
I played it like a done deed 
  G           D 
I sang like a soul freed 
  G      C             D      G     C  G  D  G 
I wasn’t poor, I was a millionaire 

 
                          F              G 
Oh, Momma and Dad passed away when I was little 
                         F              G 
Momma left the banjo and Daddy left the fiddle 
                        F         C 
They both left me their Tennessee touch___ 
           G              F          C          G      
And I said thank you very much, very much, very much

Verse 5 
                        C 
Oh, it thundered like a stampede 
   G               D 
It shook me like a bent reed 
       G       C              G                    D 
Like a runaway wagon, it went coursing through the air 
  G                C 
I played it like a done deed 
  G           D 
I sang like a soul freed 
  G      C             D      G     C  G  D  G 
I wasn’t poor, I was a millionaire 

 
                          F              G 
Oh, Momma and Dad passed away when I was little 
                         F              G 
Momma left the banjo and Daddy left the fiddle 
                        F         C 
They both left me their Tennessee touch___ 
           G              F          C          G      
And I said thank you very much, very much, very much
