Chorus: 
          D            G      D                      G      D
She’s the Queen of the Silver Dollar, she rules this smokey kingdom
    D       G    D                E7               A7
Her scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is her throne
        D       G      D                   G       D
Now the jesters flock around her tryin’ to win her favors
   D         G        D        G            D      A      D
To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home


     D                               G 
She arrives in all her splendor each night at nine o’clock
    A                                                    D
Her chariot is a crosstown bus that stops right down the block
        D                          G
Now the old piano minstrel plays a tune as she walks in
        A                                  D 
And the Queen of the Silver Dollar’s home again


Chorus


Key Change to E
        E                          A
Now the royal dress is satin, it’s shabby and it’s torn
    B                                                       E
The royal jewels are rhinestones, her shoes are scuffed and worn
       E                                  A
Of the many roads she’s been down and the places that she’s seen
      B7                                        D
Well, they all look at her and say God save the queen


Key Change to A
        A                                    D
Now the Queen of the Silver Dollar is not as haughty as she seems
E                                           A
She was once an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams
A                                      D
But there’s a man who found her and he brought her to this world
E                                                E 
I’m the one who made a queen of a simple country girl
