E* E6 Emaj7 E B
E* E6 Emaj7 E B
[Verse 1]
E* E6
We wrote our names on a dollar bill
Emaj7 E6 B
down at the dollar bill bar
E* E6
Our feelings couldn't reach the ceiling
Emaj7 E6 B
so we hung 'em right there on the wall
E* E6
we were spinning round so silly drunk
Emaj7 E6 B
wind was just like rippling leaves
E* E6
In a forest full of promises
Emaj7 E6 B
hundred thousand broken down dreams
[Chorus]
D#m F#
Guys like you are dime a dozen
E
You should count your lucky stars
D#m F#
Darlin' if I had a dollar
E A E
for every single sailor's heart
E
I could break a hundred
F# B
down at the dollar bill bar

Down at the dollar bill bar

You may see my name is written there
B
And then you'd know I've been here before
E
Well, you may think that you are special
B
And that you've got what it takes
E
But I'm standing here to tell you
B
That was your very first mistake
[Chorus]

Guys like you are dime a dozen
E A E
You should count your lucky stars

Darlin' if I had a dollar
E A E
for every single cowboy's heart

So if I ask you for a dollar bill
Emaj7 E6 B
down at the dollar bill bar
E* E6
just think twice before you pony up
Emaj7 E6 B
take me for a twirl on that floor
E* E6
and if I tell you that I love you
Emaj7 E6 B
and I tell you that I want to take you home
E* E6
just turn around and leave here 'cause
Emaj7 E6 B
I'm telling you you're better off alone
