Capo 2nd Fret (to match original recording)

Intro: (D) (D) (D) (D)

(D) I ain't (Bm7) gon(Em7)na (A7) marry in the (Dmaj7) fall
I (Em7) ain't gonna (A7) marry in the (D) spring (Ebdim) 
'Cause (Em) I'm in (A9) love with a (Dmaj7) pretty little (Bm7) girl
Who (Em7) wears a (D) diam(G)ond (Em7) ring. (A)

  (D) I'm (Bm) just a (Em) countr(Em7)y boy (A7)
  (D) Money (Dmaj7) have (D7) I (G) none
  But (Em7) I've got (A7) silver (D) in the (Bm) stars
  And (Em7) gold in the (A7) morn(Em7)in' (D) sun
  (Ebdim) And (Em) gold in the (A7) morn(Em7)in' (D) sun.

Never gonna kiss the ruby red lips
Of the prettiest girl in town
Never gonna ask her if she'd marry me
I know she'd turn me down.

(CHORUS)

I never could afford a store bought ring
With a sparkling diamond stone
All I could afford is a loving heart
The only one I own.

(CHORUS)

(Em7) (Gm) (D)
