Chords for Gold

_ _ _ _ _ _ Oh, the night is growing colder and [Db] the stars have [Ab] lost their shine
And I have been forsaken by everything I [Eb] thought was mine
Or in the [Ab] darkest hour [Db] when the final story's told
No matter how [Ab] bright I glittered, baby, [Eb] I could never [Ab] be gold
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ You gave up your finest treasure for [Db] the one you saw [Ab] in me
But how could I know the measure of all you needed [Eb] me to be?
[Ab] Though I came with sweet intentions, [Db] more my pockets could not hold
No matter how [Ab] bright I glittered, baby, [Eb] _ I could [Ab] never be gold
_ _ _ [Db] I finally gave up counting the [Ab] ways you said I let you down
[Db] When I [Gb] fell into [Db] that river of your [Ab]
return and you [Eb] watched me drown _ _ _
[Ab] Oh, I could [Eb] sparkle like a [Ab] diamond, _ [Db] have silver line my soul
But no matter how bright [Ab] I glittered, baby, [Eb] I could never [Ab] be gold
You _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ [Db] looked so high and long for heaven, I [Ab] tried so hard to show the way
But [Db] though I flew on wings of angels, my [Ab] feet were always [Eb] made of clay
_ _ I could [Ab] come trailing clouds of glory, [Db] but you saw nothing to behold
No matter how bright [Ab] I glittered, baby, [Eb] I could never [Ab] be gold
No _ _ [Db] matter how [Ab] bright I glittered, [Eb] baby, I could [Ab] never be gold
