Pie In The Sky

(by K. Brown)

There ain't no pie

up in the sky
         C                                                                G
At least there's not for me
              D                                                                         G
Down here I'm just a workin' man
         Dsus
as poor as i can be
           C
But on the day
                                                G
you'd marry me
        B                                                C
I'd be a richer man
              G                                           C           G
And cut a slice or two of pie
              Dsus                                          G
and mine be sweet pecan

babe
           Dsus                                           G
yeah, you're my sweet pecan

G/C/G/Dsus/G

There ain't no pot
of gold
at the end of my rainbow
Down here I'm just
a toil away
until the day I'm old
And when I'm through
I'll tally up
the times I spent with you
Each day's a pot of gold
I'm rich and I got you babe
I'm rich and I got you

And when it's time
for me to fly
I'll be on my way
I spent a life
a workin' man
'bout all I can say
And tried to leave
a better place
than the one in which I came
and you and me made brighter days
out of the ones that rained
babe
out of the ones that rained

G
Well there ain't no pie up in the sky
        Dsus                          G
But you're my sweet pecan babe
Dsus                           G
you're my sweet pecan
