You've Got Gold. John Prine
Listen to the song as there are a few walks and so forth from the G to the C, and A
hammer on and pull off while playing the D...also during the chorus the is a slide from the
C formation ...sliding the entire chord so that your index finger of the C chord is at
the 3rd fret 5th string and back to the C formation 5th string 1st fret.
G D
Is there ever enough, space between us, to keep us both honest and true.
G
why is it so hard, to just sit in the yard, and stare at the sky so blue
I've got a new way of walking and a new way of talking
C
Honey, when I'm around you.
G
But it gives me the blues, when I've got some good news
D G
And you're not there to bring it to.
G D
Life is a blessin' it's a delicatessen, of all the little favors you do.
All wrapped up together, no matter the weather
G
Baby you always come through.
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/john_prine/youve_got_gold_crd.html ]
It's a measure of treasure, that gives me the pleasure
C
Of loving you the way I do.
G
And you know I would gladly, say I need your love badly
D G
And bring these little things to you.
(chorus)
C ~~fretslide~~ G
Cause you got gold, Gold inside of you,
C ~~fretslide~~ G
You got gold, Gold inside of you,
D ~~fretslide~~ G
Well I got some, Gold inside me too,
G
Well I'm thinkin I'm knowin, that I gotta be goin
D
You know I hate to say so long.
G
It gives me an ocean of mixed up emotion, I'll have to work it out in a song.
Well I'm leavin' a life, Oh the little I got
C
But you know a lot of little will do.
G
And if you give me your love, I'll let it shine up above
D G
And light my way back home to you.
(chorus)
C ~~fretslide~~ G
Cause you got gold, Gold inside of you,
C ~~fretslide~~ G
You got gold, Gold inside of you,
D ~~fretslide~~ G
Well I got some, Gold inside me too,
(chorus)
C ~~fretslide~~ G
Cause you got Wheels, Turning inside of you,
C ~~fretslide~~ G
You got Wheels, Turning inside of you,
D ~~fretslide~~ G
Well I got Wheels, Turning inside me too,
