This is played in Drop D tuning but you don’t have to 
set it up that way to play along like this:


D                  A                G
I've heard tell of millionaires and billionaires and such 
    D                  A                   G  
Who gathered all their treasures and still did not have enough 
   D               A                G
If money could buy peace of mind, I guess they'd have it all 
    D             A                  G                 A
But all the money in the world won’t hold you when you fall 


Chrosu: 
            G     A       D            G         A        D
We've got a roof over our head and the kids have all been fed 
        G            D                 E7             G
And the women I love most lies close beside me in our bed 
G                 D                             G
Lord, give me the eyes to see exactly what it's worth 
    G             A              D
And I will be the richest man on earth 


Lord, when I wish I had the things that you gave someone else 
I pray that you'll forgive me for just thinkin' of myself 
I haven't been as thankful as I know I ought to be 
I should be more then satisfied with all you've given me 

Chorus

Bridge: 
A
One thing is for certain 
         G      A        D 
It don't matter when you die 
G            F#m
If you had a million 
   Em     Em/F#    G    A
Or if you just got by 

Chorus 

Yes, I will be the richest man on earth
