Am                         E        A7
Once I built a railroad, I made it run
D7      G7              C       E
Made it race against time
Dm              E7          Am      F
Once I built a railroad, now it's done
Bm7(5-)            E      Am     E   
Brother, can you spare a dime?

Am                    E        A7
Once I built a tower up to the sun
D7         G7        C    E
Brick and rivet and lime
Dm              E7     Am        F
Once I built a tower, now it's done
Bm7(5-)            E      Am
Brother, can you spare a dime?

A7
Once in khaki suits, gee we looked swell

Full of that Yankee-Doodly-dum
D7
Half a million boots went sloggin' through Hell
   Bm7(5-)     F7            E 
And I was the kid with the drum

Am                              E        A7
Say, don't you remember, they called me "Al"
D7      G7           C    E
It was "Al" all the time
Dm              E7       Am       F
Why don't you remember, I'm your pal
Bm7(5-)              E       Am 
Say buddy, can you spare a dime?
