One More Dollar by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings
Intro
Bm A G A D
1st verse
D A D
A long time ago I left my home
G D
For a job in the fruit trees
A D
But I missed those hills with the windy pines
G D
For their song seemed to suit me
A D
So I sent my wages to my home
G D
Said we'd soon be together
A D
For the next good crop would pay my way
G D
And I would come home forever
Chorus
Bm A G A D
One more dime to show for my day
Bm A G A D
One more dollar and I'm on my way
Bm A G A D
When I reach those hills, boys I'll never roam
Bm A G A D
One more dollar and I'm going home
2nd verse
No work said the boss at the bunkhouse door
There's a freeze on the branches
So when the dice came out at the bar downtown
I rolled and I took my chances
Repeat Chorus
3rd verse
A long time ago I left my home
Just a boy passing twenty
Could you spare a coin and a Christian prayer
For my luck has turned against me
Repeat Chorus
