Larry Sparks - The Last Suit You Wear lyrics

rate me

Intro: Slowly strum (E) and then do one quick strum and stop

(You'll hear it on the recording)

Banker (E) Moore's, plane went (E7) down, just (A) three miles South of town ////

On a (B) forty, acre (B7) farm he foreclosed on (E)//// (B)// (B7)//

I can (E) hear him, sayin' (E7) now, (A) "Money, is what it's all a-(Am)-bout." ////

Now (B) I can safely (B7) say that he's dead (E) wrong-oh-oh-(B)-ong // (B7)//

The (E) last suit you (E7) wear, won't need (A) no pockets //// (Am)////

(E) You can't take it (C#m) with you, when you (F#) go //// (B)// (B7)//

When that (E) hand full of (E7) dirt, goes (A) back into the (Am) earth ////

What (E) you'll be worth, (B) only, (B7) heaven (E) knows //// ////

(E)//// (E7)//// (A)//// (Am)//// (E)//// (B)// (B7)// (E)//// (B)// (B7)//

"You (E) know!" he always (E7) said, (A) "You got to dress for success." ////

And he (B) wore the very (B7) best that money could (E) buy-yy-yy-(B)-yy // (B7)//

He made a (E) fortune, in his (E7) time, now he (A) leaves it all be-(Am)-hind

They *ought to* (B) write this, on the (B7) stone there where he (E) lie-ii-ii-(B)-ies // (B7)//

The (E) last suit you (E7) wear, won't need (A) no pockets //// (Am)////

(E) You can't take it (C#m) with you, when you (F#) go //// (B)// (B7)//

When that (E) hand full of (E7) dirt, goes (A) back into the (Am) earth ////

What (E) you'll be worth, (B) only (B7) heaven (E) knows //// ////

(E)//// (E7)//// (A)//// (Am)//// (E)//// (B)// (B7)// (C#m)//// (A)//// (E)////

(B)// (B7)// (E)//// / (A)/ (E)/
