you’ve got gold . john prine

listen to the song as there are a few walks and so forth from the G to the C , and A
hammer on and pull off while playing the D . . . also during the chorus the is a slide from the
C formation . . . sliding the entire chord so that your index finger of the C chord is at
the 3rd fret 5th string and back to the C formation 5th string 1st fret .

G D
is there ever enough , space between us , to keep us both honest and true .
G
why is it so hard , to just sit in the yard , and stare at the sky so blue

i’ve got a new way of walking and a new way of talking
C
honey , when i’m around you .
G
but it gives me the blues , when i’ve got some good news
D G
and you’re not there to bring it to .

G D
life is a blessin’ it’s a delicatessen , of all the little favors you do .

all wrapped up together , no matter the weather
G
baby you always come through .

it’s a measure of treasure , that gives me the pleasure
C
of loving you the way i do .
G
and you know i would gladly , say i need your love badly
D G
and bring these little things to you .

( chorus )

G
well i’m thinkin i’m knowin , that i gotta be goin
D
you know i hate to say so long .
G
it gives me an ocean of mixed up emotion , i’ll have to work it out in a song .

well i’m leavin’ a life , oh the little i got
C
but you know a lot of little will do .
G
and if you give me your love , i’ll let it shine up above
D G
and light my way back home to you .
