Silver Threads And Golden Needles: The Springfields
#20 in UK 1962
(There was another verse to the original song and I added it
at the end of the Springfield's version.)
#1.
AI don't want your lonely mansion with a Dtear in every room,
All I want's the love you Apromised, beneath the halo'd Emoon.
But you Athink I should be happy with your Dmoney and your name,
And hide myself in Asorrow, while you Eplay your cheating Agame.
CHORUS:
A7Silver Dthreads and golden needles, cannot Amend this heart of mine.
AAnd I dare not drown my sorrows in the warm glow of your Gwi..Ene.
But you Athink I should be happy with your Dmoney and your name,
and hide myself in Asorrow, while you Eplay your cheating Agame.
(INTERLUDE:)
#2.
A7Silver Dthreads and golden needles, cannot Amend this heart of mine.
AAnd I dare not drown my sorrows, in the warm glow of your Gwi..Ene.
You can't Abuy my love with money, for I Dnever was that kind,
Silver threads and golden Aneedles cannot Emend this heart of Amine.
OUTRO:
Silver Dthreads and golden Aneedles cannot Gme...End..this heart of Ami..Gne.A  Ab  A  
(3rd verse:)
AI grew up in faded gingham, where Dlove's a sacred thing.
You grew up in silk and Asatin, where love's a passing Egame.
I know Anow you never loved me and I Dknow I was a fool,
to Dthink your pride would Alet you, live Eby the Golden ARule.
CHORUS:
OUTRO:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
