Magic Penny
By Malvina Reynolds


CHORUS
[D] Love is something, if you give it away, [A] give it away [D] give it away. [D] Love is something, if you give it away, you [A] end up having [D] more.


VERSE 1
[G] It's just like a [D] magic penny, [A] hold it tight and you [D] won't have any.
But [G] lend it, spend it, and you'll [D] have so many, they'll [E7] roll all over the
[A] floor! For


VERSE 2
[G] Money's dandy and we [D] like to use it, but [A] love is better— [D] don't refuse it. [G] It's a treasure and you'll [D] never lose it, [E7] unless you lock up your [A] door!
