Am
This time her mind is made up
F
Yeah, she's moving on
Am
Tonight her spirit's crushed
F
It's 'cause she don't belong
C
Maybe she thinks too much
G
She thinks she's given enough
 F                                         Am    Em7
Only now they'll know she's got a heart of gold
Am
Always looking for love
F
She's beginning to think she's cursed
Am
On her looks she judged
F
By the folks at work
C
She don't care for fashion and fame
G
Those kind of people they are all the same
    F                                      Am
One day they'll know, she's got a heart of gold
               F                  G
And she sings, I want to know what love is
                Em                Am
But it seems to come with so much pain
F                  G
If no one wants to show me
         E7          Am
It seems easier just to run away

But God he knows, I got a heart of gold
Am
Been coming 'round here
F
Since she's a little girl
Am
But now the change is clear
F
We live in a cynical world
C
She don't care for fashion and fame, no
G
Those kind of people they are all the same
     F                                      Am
They don't wanna know, she's got a heart of gold
