Heart of Gold
The Dedringers
Capo III
F C G C F C G C G C
F C G C
I met you in the spring of one five had a hunger for love and a mouth full of jive
F C G C
I look and you then you’d look away when I couldn’t think of anything else to say
F C G C
You just sound sadder when you try to sound glad I tried to bring it up but it’d make you mad
F C G C
It’d make you mad but it’d see right through cause all it really made you was all the more blue
Chorus:
F C G C
So won’t you take this monkey off of my back I couldn’t put forth what they had to hold back
F C G C
And you showed up and you broke the mold with a past full of scars and a heart of gold
G C
A heart of gold... with your heart of gold
F C G C
So the angel she came down to me and filled me with anxiety
F C G C
And scuffed my boots and tore my socks filled my pockets up with rocks
F C G C
I told her as she was about to go to do take care and rock the show
F C G C
She looked at me as she flew away she said if you’d a left I might have stayed
Chorus
F C G C F C G C G C
F C G C
Then I went out and I found a friend who filled my glass and talked of sin
F C G C
He said of sin you can’t escape it when new years comes it’s always belated
F C G C
I remember when the world was created god’s plan was good but his vision was jaded
Chorus
F C G C
So we proceeded to knock ‘em down and quench our thirst round after round
F C G C
I woke in the morning feeling quite a clown I shut my mouth moved to the next town
F C G C
It didn’t get better when I got there cause I was seeing you everywhere
F C G C
Sitting by the window standing by the door just like the town and the town before
Chorus
F C G C
Like the ferris wheel and the candy man we lived in cotton candy land
F C G C
You wanted picket fences and a pink home though you knew deep down I had the hunger to roam
F C G C
We drank more than sailors on leave you saw it in my eyes on new years eve
F C G C
New years eve at the start of one seven I’d rather keep moving than stop in heaven
G C
Rather keep on moving than stop in heaven
Chorus
F C G C F C G C G C
