This is my first post of chords, so I'm praying
the lines w/ chords and the lines w/ words roughly
match up.
Someone (sorry didn't catch name, cause I'm new
to this game) posted a request for the chords to
"It's Money That Matters" by Randy Newman, from the
recording "Land of Dreams" (Reprise 25773--a few bad tunes, but a few
really great tunes, so buy it!). The
poster can e-mail me for clarification.
I welcome all corrections, suggestions, praise, and flames at my
e-mail address.
Here is a condensation of the chords for the
tune. It's pretty much a "cycle" tune, so I didn't include all lyrics
and verses.
Notes: The verse merely cycles through D-A-G-D
(with two beats per chord, but note that the D
chord repeats at beginning and end of each cycle). What Newman
D A G D
Of all of the people
D A G D
that I used to know
D A G D
Most never adjusted
D A G D
to the great big world
etc.
BRIDGE I
Bmin A G
All of these people are much brighter than I
Bmin A G
In any fair system they would flourish and thrive
D
But they barely survive
A
They eke out a living
A#dim Bmin
And they barely survive
Bmin A G D/F# (A (no third) C no third (riff: G C C C D)
When I was a young boy
A (no third) C no third (riff: G C C C D)
Maybe thirteen
A (no third) C no third (riff: G C C C D)
I took a hard look around me
A (no third) C no third (riff: G C C C D)
and asked what does it mean?
D A G D
So I talked to my father
D A G D
and he didn't know.
etc.
