G Em C
[Verse 1]
G
It was a red go-kart, a big backyard.
G
It was summer trips on the credit card.
Em C
A new pair of shoes the first day of school,
C
So I could feel cool.
G
It was a hand-me-down Chevy when I turned 16.
G
A twenty on the counter for some gasoline.
Em C
It was free to me. It was mom and daddy's money.
[Chorus]
Em C G
Never knew where it came from, just knew where it went.
D Em
Hard to come by, but easy to spend.
C
If times got tough, man, I couldn't tell.
G D
They went through Hell so I could live
C
In the land of milk and honey on
[Próxima Parte]
D G G
Mom and daddy's money
[Verse 2]
G
Part-time jobs and mowin' yards
G
Don't cover car wrecks and broken arms,
Em C
But they had my back, even when they knew
C
I couldn't pay 'em back.
G
The older I got, the more I saw
G
This whole time, it was time they bought.
Em
They looked out for me 'till I didn't need
C
Mom and daddy's money.
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
D G G
Mom and daddy's money, ey ey ey.
[Bridge]
D C
Well, dollars only go so far.
D
No, they'll never be enough.
C
The money runs out, but their love, it never does.
C
And that's mom and daddy's money.
[Chorus]
Em C G D
Now I know where it came from, and I know what it meant.
Em C G D
I know it's hard to come by and easy to spend, end end
Em C G
And if times get tough, man, I'll never tell.
D
I'll go through Hell so they can live
C
In the land of milk and honey on
D
Mom and daddy's money.
[Outro]
C D G
Ain't it kinda funny – mom and daddy's money, ey ey ey.
[Solo]
G Em C G
Lookin' back it ain't hard to see all the
Em
Little things that they did for me, and if I'm lucky
D C
One day a little voice will ask me...
