House Of Gold Chords by Patty Griffin

_ _ People _ steal, _
[F] _ they [C] cheat and lie _
For wealth and what _ [F] it _ [C] will buy _ _
_ _ Don't they _ _ _ _ know judgment [C] _ day? _ _
_ _ Gold and silver _ _
[G] will melt [C] away _ _ _
_ I'd rather be _ _ _
[F] in a deep [C] dark _ grave _
And know that my _ _ _
[F] first son was _ _ saved
Than to live in [F] this fire _ _
[C] in a house of gold _ _
And [D] deny my _ God _
[G] and build my _ _ soul
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
What good is gold _ _ and silver to _ _
_ Even your _ heart, _ not good and true _ _ _
_ Sinner, [F] hear _ _ _ me when I [C] say
_ I'm _ falling on _ _ [Em]
your [G] knees [C] and pray _
For I'd rather be _ _
[Am] in a deep dark _ _ grave
And know that my _ _ [F] _
_ first [C] son was saved _ _
Than to live [F] in this fire _ _ _ _ _ [C] in a house of gold _ _ _
And deny my _ God [Em] _
and [G] build [C] my soul _ _
