Patty Griffin - House Of Gold


CAPO: 3rd Fret


    A augmentedA   D MajorD        A augmentedA
People steal, they cheat and lie
          D MajorD    A augmentedA
For wealth and what it will buy
      D MajorD         A augmentedA
Don't they know, on judgement day
        E MajorE      A augmentedA
Gold and silver will melt away

       D MajorD        A augmentedA
I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave
        D MajorD       A augmentedA
And know that my poor soul was saved
           D MajorD          A augmentedA
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
        E MajorE      A augmentedA
And deny my god and doom my soul


INSTRUMENTAL: D MajorD A augmentedA  D MajorD A augmentedA  D MajorD A augmentedA  D MajorD   A augmentedA


         D MajorD      A augmentedA
What good is gold and silver too
        D MajorD       A augmentedA
In your heart's not good and true
    D MajorD       A augmentedA
Sinner, hear me when I say
      E MajorE        A augmentedA
Fall down on your knees and pray


       D MajorD        A augmentedA
I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave
        D MajorD       A augmentedA
And know that my poor soul was saved
           D MajorD          A augmentedA
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
        E MajorE      A augmentedA
And deny my god and doom my soul
