VERSE 1:
FA#m
Some folks think I'm greedy
LA FA#m
And I just take from you.
And if I say it's true now,
LA FA#m
What good would that do?
And if I wanted to be funny,
I could say that all that money
LA FA#m
That you spent on me was just from fraud.
And if I wanted to be bitter,
I could say that little by little,
LA FA#m
All you did for me was no good.
CHORUS
LA FA#m
I didn't lose your money.
LA FA#m
I didn't lose your mo - - - - - ney,
DO#7 FA#m DO#7
Oh no, your money just lost you.
FA#m DO#7
You brought me up this way,
FA#m DO#7
When just a little bit of love
FA#m DO#7 FA#m
Could have changed my ways.
VERSE 2:
Some folks help the needy,
Me, I just help myself
And if I shared with you now,
It would steadily decrease my wealth.
And if I saw you on the street
With worn-out shoes upon your feet,
I wouldn't spare you the price of a cup of tea.
I know you brought me from the gutter,
Helped me earn my bread and butter,
But I have a lousy memory.
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL:
FA#m DO#7 FA#m x2
LA FA#m
I didn't lose your money.
LA FA#m
I didn't lose your mo - - - - - ney.
LA FA#m
I didn't lose your mo - - - - - ney,
DO#7 FA#m DO#7
Oh no, your money just lost you.
DO#7 FA#m DO#7
You brought me up this way,
FA#m DO#7
When just a little bit of love
FA#m DO#7
Could have changed my ways,
FA#m
When just a little bit,
DO#7
When just a little bit,
FA#m
When just a little bit,
DO#7
When just a little bit,
FA#m
When just a little bit of love,
FA#m DO#7 FA#m
love, love, could have changed my ways.
