Gold Heart Locket
Sam Bush (from Circles Around Me)
By Jeff Black
[Verse]
EAll night long I've been riding riding, I
should have been there by Bnow, but these
F#mold county roads got a lot of deep holes and the
Arain keeps pouring Edown
Ethe bridge is washed out and the rising rising
waters of the river rush Bby and I'm
F#mup to my fenders in mud and to my witness above
AI'm really stuck this Etime
[Chorus]
I've got a
Agold heart locket on a silver chain
Eclinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain and the
Bonly road back home again is
F#mall but washed away
AI'm going to cross that river tonight no
Ematter what it takes although I might die
Btrying my true love will F#mremain in a
Agold heart locket on a Bsilver Echain
[Verse]
Eopen it up and she's lovely lovely
eyes of hazel Bgreen, but I
F#mclose it up fast because the rain gets past and lays a
Atear down on her Echeek
EI promised her once that I would never ever
break her heart Bagain, so
F#mLord take me there, in a silent prayer, with her
Alocket in my Ehand
[Bridge]
F#mthe last thing I remember I was
Afearing for my Elife. She was
F#mcalling out my name from over
Aon the other Eside.
F#mI reached out to hold her but the
Abreak was just too Estrong. Now the
Bsilence just gets colder as the
F#mriver rages Eon
[Verse]
EAll night long I've been riding riding, I
should have been there by Bnow, but these
F#mold county roads got a lot of deep holes and the
Arain keeps pouring Edown
Ethe bridge is washed out and the rising rising
waters of the river rush Bby and I'm
F#mup to my fenders in mud and to my witness above
AI'm really stuck this Etime
[Chorus]
I've got a
Agold heart locket on a silver chain
Eclinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain and the
Bonly road back home again is
F#mall but washed away
AI'm going to cross that river tonight no
Ematter what it takes although I might die
Btrying my true love will F#mremain in a

Gold Heart Locket

Sam Bush (from Circles Around Me)

By Jeff Black

[Verse]

All night long I've been riding riding, I

should have been there by now, but these

F#m

old county roads got a lot of deep holes and the

A E

rain keeps pouring down

the bridge is washed out and the rising rising

waters of the river rush by and I'm

F#m

up to my fenders in mud and to my witness above

A E

I'm really stuck this time

[Chorus]

I've got a

gold heart locket on a silver chain

clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain and the

only road back home again is

F#m

all but washed away

I'm going to cross that river tonight no

matter what it takes although I might die

B F#m

trying my true love will remain in a

A B E

gold heart locket on a silver chain

[Verse]

open it up and she's lovely lovely

eyes of hazel green, but I

F#m

close it up fast because the rain gets past and lays a

A E

tear down on her cheek

I promised her once that I would never ever

break her heart again, so

F#m

Lord take me there, in a silent prayer, with her

A E

locket in my hand

[Bridge]

F#m

the last thing I remember I was

A E

fearing for my life. She was

F#m

calling out my name from over

A E

on the other side.

F#m

I reached out to hold her but the

A E

break was just too strong. Now the

silence just gets colder as the

F#m E

river rages on

[Verse]

All night long I've been riding riding, I

should have been there by now, but these

F#m

old county roads got a lot of deep holes and the

A E

rain keeps pouring down

the bridge is washed out and the rising rising

waters of the river rush by and I'm

F#m

up to my fenders in mud and to my witness above

A E

I'm really stuck this time

[Chorus]

I've got a

gold heart locket on a silver chain

clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain and the

only road back home again is

F#m

all but washed away

I'm going to cross that river tonight no

matter what it takes although I might die

B F#m

trying my true love will remain in a

A B E

gold heart locket on a silver chain
