Gold

From the album Unseen

[INTRO]

F Am G

[VERSE 1]

Am C

Got a tattoo of a snake

F C

And a ski mask on my face

F C

But I woke up in a ditch

G F

Behind the Stop 'n Go

Am C

Lying in the weeds

F C

With a bullet in my gut

F C

Watching dollar bills

G F

Fly away in the dust

[CHORUS]

F C

Now the sun's sinking down

G F

Spilling gold on the ground

Am C

But I'm going out tonight

G F Am G

Out past the last lights of town

[INTERLUDE]

F Am G

[VERSE 2]

Am C

There was a girl with dark eyes

F C

And hair shining black

F C

And it ran like a river

G F

Wild down her back

Am C

But these wide empty streets

F C

And the air shaking with heat

F C

They made me hungry

G F Am G

Hungry to do something mean

[CHORUS]

F C

Now the sun's sinking down

G F

Spilling gold on the ground

Am C

But I'm going out tonight

G F Am G

Out past the last lights of town

[INTERLUDE]

F Am G

[VERSE 3]

Am C

The Stop 'n Go's closed

F C

The coyotes they moan

F C

And the wind's rolling beer cans

Down the street

[CHORUS]

F C

But the sun's sinking down

G F

Spilling gold on the ground

Am C

And I'm going out tonight

G F Am G

Out past the last lights of town

[OUTRO]
