D7 G
[Verse 1]
G
Yeah, well I spent a lifetime
D7
Just makin' up my mind to be
D7
More than the measure of
G
What I thought others could see
G
Good luck and those fast bucks
G7 C
Are too few and too far between
D7
Those other Cadillac drivers
G
And those old five and dimers like me
[Verse 2]
G
You know, she stood beside me
D7
Tellin' me she would be
D7
Somethin' to lean on
G
Everythin' ran out on me
G
No fenced yards ain't hole cards
G7 C
Like as not, never will be
D7
Any reason for rhymers
G
And those old five and dimers like me, alright

[Verse 3]
G
Now I've searched for so long
D7
Now that I've found that I believe
D7
All that I do or say
G
Is all I ever will be
G
Too far and too high and too deep
G7 C
Ain't too much to be
D7
Yeah, too much just ain't enough
G
For those old five and dimers like me
D7
I guess an old five and dimer
G D7 G
Is all I intended to be, alright
