Pawn Shop Ring

G  F  C  G

          G                                        F
There's a diamond ring in that old pawn shop. Down Franklin Street where the rich folks walk.
    C                                        G
One day I'm gonna stroll on in with a wad of cash.
G                                     F
Step right up to the counter man, lay every dollar in his hand.
       C                                    G
Say "I need that big old ring for my little lass."


      Em                                A7
Well, penny, nickel, quarter, dime. I'm thinkin' 'bout her all the time.
C                          G
She's got a mortgage in my brain.
   Em                                      A7
No diamond ring could match her worth. No shining stone down in the earth.
C                                        G
All the riches of the world would be in vain.


G  F  C  G


        G                                     F
She got tiny hands and big brown eyes and her eyebrows dance when she tells me lies.
  C                                     G
I act dumb, let her think she's foolin' me.
          G                              F
But she's innocent just like a dove. And somehow I'm the one she loves.
  C                       G
I still find it hard to believe.


            Em                           A7
I told her "all I eat is Bojangles". She said "you need some vegetables".
    C                                     G
Well, ain't it cute how she worries 'bout me?
        Em                                    A7
Now she makes me take these vitamins. Says "I just don't want you dying, man!"
          C                          G
Guess she wants me as healthy as can be.


G  F  C  G


    G                                          F
Sometimes she gets all cold like winter. But I don't mind, I stick right with her
       C                                G
'Cause every other day she's sweet like spring
    G                                        F
She feeds me greens and hides my smokes. And sings me all them songs I wrote.
    C                       G
She waters every flower I bring


         Em                                  A7
She gets pissy when I make bad jokes. But forgives me when I pull her close.
C                                G
She makes a poor boy feel like a king
           Em                                    A7
And if she keeps it up I'll be bound to work and sweat all through my Sunday shirt.
       C                                    G
Till I got me enough money for that diamond ring.


G  F  C  G


           G                                      F
There's an empty case in that old pawn shop. Down Franklin Street where the rich folks walk.
C                                        G
Yesterday I strolled on in with a wad of cash
  G                                        F
I walked right up to the counter man, laid every dollar in his hand.
         C                            G
Now that big old ring's on my little lass


      Em                              A7
Well, penny, nickel, quarter, dime. I saved 'em up a long, long time.
C                          G
And it was worth it in the end
          Em                                    A7
'Cause no diamond ring could match the sight of tears wellin' in her eye
       C                          G
When I asked her to be my forever friend.
