Dm Am F A# A# x2
Dm Am F A#
It was early in the morning when the battle horse arrived.
Dm Am F A#
And he embraced Sarah, who was the bride of his old age
Dm Am F A#
And Sarah hugged Billy, who was born of her sweet, sweet womb
F A#
And no-no-no-nobody shall die,
F A#
And no-no-no-nobody shall die,
F A#
And no-no-no-nobody shall die,
F Am
Until I've got money in my hand...
Dm Am F A#
It was silence that begot them, the purpose of their ways
Dm Am F A#
Lord, the Father, the Beggar, with his two, two hands
Dm Am F A#
From that time, the post will pull, and push against the sky
Dm Am F A#
But, oh baby, baby I know, I know that the night's too slow,
F A#
And no-no-no-no-nobody shall die,
F A#
And no-no-no-no-nobody shall die,
F A#
And no-no-no-no-nobody shall die,
F Am
'Til I've got money in my hand,
F Am
'Til I've got money in my hand,
F Am
'Til I've got money in my hand,
F Am
'Til I've got money in my hand,
F Am
Oh I was a singer, and I sang in your home,
F Am
I was a singer, and I sang in your home,
F Am
I was a singer, and I sang in your home,
F Am
But it don't mean nothing man, nothing man, until you got some money in your hand,
Oh oh...
F Am
(till the end)
