Carl Smith - If Teardrops Were Pennies guitar chord

(D) (G) (D)

An acre of diamonds I'd offer to you (1951)

(A7)

(A) solid gold mansion, an airplane or two

(D) (G) (D)

This whole world would be yours to have and to hold

(A7) (D)

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold

Chorus

(G) (D)

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold

(A7)

I'd have all the riches my pockets would hold

(D) (G) (D)

I'd be oh so wealthy with treasures untold

(A7) (D)

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.

The tears that have fallen won磘 buy you a thing

The heartaches you caused me won't pay for a ring

The love that I wanted would not have grown cold

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.

Repeat chorus

But teardrops aren't pennies

And heartaches aren't gold
