I'm Only In It For The Money...Honey
[Dennis Cope]
 
[Verse 1]
Am
One night my better half said
Am E
"Gracious sakes alive,
Am
We either eat or pay the rent
Am E
How are we ever goin' to survive"
C G
It got me down to thinkin'
F E
What the heck am I to do
Am G
So I picked up my guitar
Am E Am
And strummed a song or two
 
[Chorus 1]
C G
Life would become
F E
Like milk and honey
Am G
If we only had
Am E Am
Just a little more money
 
[Verse 2]
Am
At first I didn't see it
Am E
But the more I sang and played,
Am
It started to occur to me
Am E
Some folks are actually paid
C G
For writing songs and melodies
F E
So I thought maybe I'd try it
Am G
But I gotta keep time with words that rhyme
Am E Am
And hope you're gonna buy it
 
[Chorus 2]
C G
I said to myself
F E
Now wouldn't it be funny
Am G
If a song like this
Am E Am
Could churn out a bit of money
 
[Verse 3]
Am
I took out a scrap of paper
Am E
And wrote the first thing in my head
Am
It ended up being not too bad
Am E
So I packed up and went to bed
C G
I woke up in the morning
F E
And read what I had written
Am G
A smile was stamped across my face
Am E Am
The writing bug had bitten
 
[Chorus 3]
C G
I ain't goin' to lie
F E
To ya Honey
Am G
I'm strictly in it
Am E Am
For the money
 
[Solo]
Am
Am E
Am
Am E
C G
F E
Am G
Am E Am
 
[Verse 4]
Am
Now many years have passed
Am E
Since I wrote that little tune
Am
But it seems to me I'll have to
Am E
Write another one real soon
C G
The mansion's really nice
F E
And the Bentley's fun to drive
Am G
But it sure does eat up all my cash
Am E Am
Just to keep my dream alive
 
[Chorus 4]
C G
There's no point lyin'
F E
To ya Honey
Am G
I'm strictly doin' this
Am E Am N.C.
FOR YOUR MONEY...HONEY
