Three Little Pennies
Recorded by Doug Stone
Written by Kim Tribble and Tim Bays

G C G C G Am D7
There was an old blind man who stood on the corner downtown
G
He was holding a cup filled up with nothing
C G Am D7
From the Christmas shopping crowd
C D7
And though I barely came up to the top of his cane
C D7
I reached up and gave him every cent to my name

G D7 C G
Three little pennies were all that I had
C G Am D7
One that I'd found two from my dad
G D7 C G
Three little pennies not much of a gift
Am G D7 C G Am D7
But dad said that's plenty if it's all you can give

G C G C Am D7
That evening my dad told a wonderful story to me
G
Bout a Child and the manger the wise men who came
C G Am D7
Bearing gifts on the first Christmas Eve
C D7
There was a part I'm sure he made up
C D7
Bout a stable boy who couldn't give much

Repeat #2

G C G C G Am D7
Next morning was Christmas and I had prayed hard for a bike
G
But all that I found was the tiniest box
C G Am D7
With three shiny pennies inside
C D7
And I was so disappointed because I had been good
C D7
But times had been bad so I understood

G D7 C G
And daddy said three little pennies were all that you had
C G Am D7
But you gave them freely so I gave 'em back
G D7 C G
Three little pennies is not much of a gift
Am G D7 G
Your bike is outside because you've learned how to give
