A                             G     E      G
I found myself with no-one I could turn to
The situation went from bad to worse
While I was out there taking care of business
F#               A      B     E
Oh I was moving forward in reverse

I started out with every good intention
I wanted just to get back on my feet
The enemy will soon be gunning
It won't be long before I'm running
And I'll be calling for the fleet

Chorus:
           E
I'm gonna move to the light
        A
Gonna stand up and fight
            E
I'm gonna show I was wrong
           A
I'm gonna win back the right
      C#m
Oh it wasn't for the won't of trying
        A                   B
that I turned to the other side
                 E
One for the money

I never made enough for what I needed
I thought that I could find an easy way
But I was wrong and now I'm running
It won't be long, and they'll be gunning for me
And everybody's closing in on me

Chorus:
I'm gonna move to the light
Gonna stand up and fight
I'm gonna show I was wrong
Gonna win back the right
Oh it wasn't for the won't of trying
that I turned to the other side
One for the money

I'm gonna move to the light
Gonna stand up and fight
I'm gonna show I was wrong
Gonna win back the right
Oh it wasn't for the won't of trying
that I turned to the other side
One for the money
One for the money, one for the money
