One For The Money
Written and recorded by Conway Twitty

G                 C
One for the money two for the show
       D7                               G
You've played your little game so cleverly
                        C
First you took my money then you made me go
    D7                              G
You showed me up and made a fool of me

                           D7
Not too long ago I still remember
                                G
Kisses warm and sweet and oh so tender
                                       C
But like a bolt of lighting strikes an unsuspecting tree 
       D7                                   G
That's just how quick you've made a fool of me

repeat #1

                                D7
Everybody told me what you were doin'
                                   G
They all said that you would be my ruin
                                        C
But like the tree that couldn't see the light that's flashin' down
  D7                               G
I closed my ears and didn't hear a sound

repeat #1
