This is my first post of chords, so I'm praying
the lines w/ chords and the lines w/ words roughly
match up.
Someone (sorry didn't catch name, cause I'm new
to this game) posted a request for the chords to
"It's Money That Matters" by Randy Newman, from the
recording "Land of Dreams" (Reprise 25773--a few bad tunes, but a few
really great tunes, so buy it!). The
poster can e-mail me for clarification.
I welcome all corrections, suggestions, praise, and flames at my
e-mail address.
Here is a condensation of the chords for the
tune. It's pretty much a "cycle" tune, so I didn't include all lyrics
and verses.
Notes: The verse merely cycles through D-A-G-D
(with two beats per chord, but note that the D
chord repeats at beginning and end of each cycle). What Newman
