Verse 1
I put (G major) a (Bdim) penny in (B flat major) my (A minor) pocket
An (D major) d in a little (G major) time
(E flat major) That penny in (A minor) my pocket
Had (D major) grown into (G major) a dime
(E major) And (A minor) in a little longer
A (E flatdim) quarter jingled (G major) out
I put the quarter in (E minor) the teapot,
and I waited till the teapot
had a (G major) dollar in (A minor) the spot.
(B minor) I put the dollar in my (A minor) mattress, (C major)
an (D major) d had some pleasant dreams, (B minor)
(G major) (B minor) (F sharp major) till sud (E flat major) denly my (A minor) mat tress
was (D major) bursting at the (B minor) seams. (G major)
(E major) And that's how I ac (A minor) quired
the (C minor) wealth I now pos (G major) sess.
That little penny is the (E minor) secret, yes,
that penny is (A minor) the secret of my (D major) success.
(G major) (E major) I (B flat major) had a (G major) penny in (B flat major) my (A minor) pocket
an (C major) (D major) d not another soon. (B minor)
(E minor) An (F sharp major) d with my (E flat major) only shirt (A minor) tail,
(D major) I (E flatdim) shined (C minor) a (G major) rich man's shoe. (B minor) (G major) (E major)
He threw me down a (A minor) nickel, (E flat major)
admiring my (G major) skill.
I gave the nickel to a blind (E minor) man,
and the blind man left me all his meager
savings (A minor) in his will. (C major) (A minor)
(E major) I bought myself (C major) a (B minor) wagon
an (E major) d started hauling ice. (C sharp minor) (A major) (A flat major)
I cut the (E flatdim) ice to (B minor) ice cubes
and (D major) got a (A flatdim) higher price. (C sharp minor) (C sharp major)
(F sharp major) I crushed the cubes to (B minor) ices
for (Bdim) still (D minor) a (Bdim) higher fare. (D minor)
(A major) A (E major) (A major) big (F sharp minor) (D major) tycoon said,
(F sharp minor) very enterprising in your organizing,
(B major) son, you must come (B minor) work for me. (F major)
En route to (C sharp major) work next (G major) morning,
(C minor) (E flat major) I (F major) helped a lady cross. (D minor) (B flat major)
(G flat major) The lady was, (C minor) you guessed it,
(F major) the mother of the (B flat major) boss. (G major)
The boss said, you're pro (C minor) moted.
(E flat minor) I need you (E flatdim) at my (B flat major) side.
And then I met the boss's (G minor) daughter,
and I wed the boss's (C major) daughter,
and quite suddenly (E flat major) she died. (C minor) (E flat major) (G major)
I bought myself an (D minor) acre,
a (G major) silo and a (C major) steed. (G major) (C major) (E flatdim)
All yonkers started buying (D minor) grain (G major) (Ddim)
(G major) and hay (C major) and feed.
An (A major) d now I've half a (D minor) million, (Ddim)
but (F minor) proudly I con (C major) fess (G major)
That in my pocket is that (A major) penny,
(A minor) it's that (C major) shiny little penny
(D major) It's that penny that's the (D minor) secret
of my (G major) success
(C major)
