Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

went down to the store today

wanting to buy something new

i put the dollar in my front pocket

and brought it back home to you

 cause i dont want to buy what i dont need

 and i dont want to own what i cant keep

 and if im gonna have to leave it all behind

 was it ever really mine

i made a dollar at my job today

i show up every week

i guess i really didnt make it

they gave it to me

 cause i dont want to buy what i dont need

 and i dont want to own what i cant keep

 and if im gonna have to leave it all behind

 was it ever really mine

cause ive got mansions

waiting in the sky

where the rivers run

but never run dry

there are highways of gold

room for this soul

i dont think jesus would like

i put a dollar in the mail today

i hope it gets there in time

they looked so hungry on my tv

 i hope theyll be alright

 cause the store's full of things that i dont need

 and the worlds full of mouths that i cant feed

 and if im gonna have to leave it all behind

 was it ever really mine

 cause i dont want to buy what i dont need

 and i dont want to own what i cant keep

 and if im gonna have to leave it all behind

 was it ever really mine
