G
In the brown shag carpet of a cheap motel
C Cmaj7
In the dark and dusty corner by the TV shelf
Am Am7
Is a small reminder of a simpler time
D G
When a crumpled up pair of trousers cost a brand new dime
G C Cmaj7
Well you ask me how I made it through and how my mint condition could belong to you
Am Am7
When I'm on the ground I roll through town
D G
I'm a president you don't remember getting kicked around
C
I'm a dime
G
I'm fine
D G
And I shine I'm freshly minted
C G
I am determined not to be dented
D G C G D
By a car or a plane or anything not yet invented
C G D G

C
I'm a dime
G
I'm fine
D
And I shine
G
In the hiss and rumble of the freeway sounds
C Cmaj7
As the afternoon commuters drive their cars around
Am Am7
There's a ringle jingle near the underpass
D G
There's a sparkle near the fast food garbage and roadside trash
C
I'm a dime
G
I'm fine
D G
And I shine I'm freshly minted
C G
I'm silver-plated I'm underrated
D G C G D
You won't even pick me up because I'm not enough for a local phone call

I'm a dime

And I shine
