Old Five And Dimers ---- Billy Joe Shaver

Verse 1:

A E

I've spent a lifetime, making up my mind to be E E7 A

More than the measure of what i thought others could see

A D

Good luck and fast bucks are too far and too few between

E E7 A

Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers like me

Verse 2:

A E

She stood beside me letting me know she would be

E E7 A

Something to lean on when everything ran out on me

A D

Fenced yards ain't hold cards and like as not never will be

E E7 A

Reasons for rhymers and old five and dimers like me

Verse 3:

A E

It's taken me so long but now that i know i believe

E A

All that i do or say is all that i ever will be

A D

Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to be

E E7 A

Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me

E E7 A

An old five and dimer was all i intented to be
