Chords for Xavier Rudd - I Need A Dollar (Aloe Blacc cover) Triple J's Like A Version

[A] _ _ _ Xavier Rudd is here on your Friday morning for Like A Version.
Our guest today just did
some wonderful live music before 8 o'clock.
We're going to get a cover.
The clue was the
song reminds you of your dad and it would come in handy if you're at a parking meter.
Please, reveal to us, Xavier Rudd, what is today's cover?
The song is by a fella called Aloe Blacc and it's Anita Dollar.
Oh, great song.
Very great song that sort of had a bit of a gradual rise in popularity but then you
sort of hear everywhere, why does it remind you of your dad?
I can see why it'd be handy
at a parking meter.
_ Is Aloe Blacc your dad?
Yeah, he might be.
You never know.
[Eb] No, it's just, I don't know, my dad's just a classic and as I went through the lyrics
it just made me smile and think of him and think of me and how _ as I get older I realise
I've ended up more like him than I thought I would. Right.
It always happens that way, doesn't it?
Always the way.
Alright then, on Triple J this morning for Like A Version, let's hear it, Xavier Rudd
performing Aloe Blacc's Anita Dollar.
Take it away.
