The Em and the C in the verses are one quick count on the 4th beat. You can 
leave them out and it will still sound ok.

First comes the blessing of all that you dreamed
                    Am(Em)                    F(C)
But then comes the curses of diamonds and rings
               Am(Em)              F(C)
Only at first did it have its appeal
                    Am(Em)                   F(C)
But now you can't tell the false from the real
                Am(Em)               F  
Who can you trust? Who can you trust?
[Chorus]
When Ameverything, everything, eAmverything you touch turns to gFold, gCold, gDmold

Statues and empires are all at your hands
              Am(Em)                F(C)
Water to wine and the finest of sands
                           Am(Em)                   F(C)
When all that you have's turnin' stale and it's cold

Oh, you no longer feel when your heart's turned to gold
