This song is mainly finger-picked the whole way through.  

==CHORUS==
Dm               G         C     G                          Am
Gonna get what's mine and wild horses couldn't keep it from me. 
Dm                      G             C    G                        Am
Papa says I'm a golden child and the whole world's gonna fall at my feet. 
Dm    G            Am 
It's all coming to me.
`
`
==VERSE==
Am                                                                                       C
Going down picking when it's harvest time, gonna get my share, gonna get what's mine for me. 
Am                                                                                  C
Sun is a-blazing down but I don't mind; I'm picking, I'm digging, it's harvest time for me. 
F                    C           Dm                    G                     Am
When I get my little eye on it, when I get my little mind on it, you best believe.
`
`
==VERSE==
Am                                                                          C
Ole sweet tooth aching in my head, gonna fill my belly to the brim, oh yes indeed! 
Am                                                                             C
Hive is a-buzzing in a hollow tree and I don't care if I gotta kill a little honeybee.
F                    C           Dm                    G                     Am
When I get my little eye on it, when I get my little mind on it, you best believe.
F    C    Dm      G                   Am 
Oh my my my my my my, it's all coming to me.

==CHORUS==
Dm               G         C     G                          Am
Gonna get what's mine and wild horses couldn't keep it from me. 
Dm                      G             C    G                        Am
Papa says I'm a golden child and the whole world's gonna fall at my feet. 
Dm    G            Am 
It's all coming to me.

==VERSE==
Am                                                                                     C
Pumpin' and a-suckin' till the well is dry, nobody's booming in these busted times like me. 
Am                                                                                           C
Down in Texas where the cattle don't roam oil is a-dripping and the savings and loans, they bleed.
F                    C           Dm                    G                     Am
When I get my little eye on it, when I get my little mind on it, you best believe.
F    C    Dm      G                   Am 
Oh my my my my my my, it's all coming to me.
