Old Five And Dimers Like Me(Chords)

	        A                                          E 
I've spent a lifetime making up my mind to be 
E                                                    A 
More than the measure of what I thought others could see 
A                                A7                D 
Good luck and fast bucks are too far and too few between 
E                                            A  
Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers like me 
 
 
She stood beside me, letting me know she would be 
Something to lean on when everything ran out on me 
Fenced yards ain't hole cards and, like as not, never will be 
Reasons for rhymers and old five and dimers like me 
 
 
Instrumental break 
 
 
It's taken me so long but now that I know, I believe 
All that I do or say is all that I ever will be 
Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me 
Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to see 
An old five and dimer was all I intended to be
