Tonality
GDCG
Thereʼs a penny on the floor and youʼre gone, the televisionʼs on.
DC
Have you found another man to take my place.
GDCG
Thereʼs a penny on the floor and Iʼm wise, I try to see in your eyes.
DC
But all I see is a reflection of my face.
Thereʼs a penny on the floor and youʼre gone, Iʼm trying to right whatʼs wrong.
A stronger man might do it with more grace.
Thereʼs a penny on the floor but Iʼm wise, I look up to the skies.
I cry and pray, and I stare out into space.
Chorus:
GD
Thereʼs a penny on the floor, and youʼre standing at the door
EmCGDC
turn around and say goodbye. A woman like you comes around just once a life.
Thereʼs a penny on the floor and Iʼm strong. Iʼll try to carry on,
Realizing no one can take your place.
Thereʼs a penny on the floor and Iʼm fine. I know itʼs gonna take some time
Before I look at you without looking at my own face.
CDCD
Penny on the floor. Iʼm tired of the war. Penny on the track. Are you cominʼ back?
Thereʼs a penny on the floor and it stays, as a tribute to the days
That were spent with you, no one can take them away.
Thereʼs a penny on the floor and it stays, as a tribute to the ways
You filled my soul with courage, hope and grace.
Chorus.
Thereʼs a penny on the floor, and youʼre standing at the door
Turn around and say goodbye.
A woman like you comes around who wonʼt bring me down.
