Going For The Gold chords by Don Mclean

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
DmDm
I chased a lot of rainbows
Bb majorBb
Down a lot of roads
G minorGm          A augmentedA
Thinking love was something
        DmDm
To be bought or sold


Verse 2:
   Bb majorBb   C majorC    FF
But I finally found a treasure
     Bb majorBb         G minorGm
And it's right here in your eyes
    DmDm          Bb majorBb
Now my golden dreams are of golden rings
     FF       A augmentedA
Precious love without a price

Chorus:
         DmDm
I'm going for the gold
    C majorC
For the heart that's in you
         Bb majorBb
I'm going for the love
    G minorGm      A augmentedA
That I know will be true
     DmDm
I've had enough
     C majorC
Of those one night stands
         Bb majorBb        C majorC    FF   A augmentedA
I'm going for the gold that's in a wedding band


Verse 3:
DmDm
I followed those illusions
Bb majorBb
That sparkled in the night
G minorGm         A augmentedA
But they were fantasies
            DmDm
That disappeared in the light


Verse 4:
  Bb majorBb    C majorC     FF
The midnight fires that burned so bright
    Bb majorBb      G minorGm
Turn to ashes in the dawn
     DmDm        Bb majorBb
I didn't realize how empty I was inside
FF        A augmentedA
Until you came along

Chorus:
         DmDm
I'm going for the gold
    C majorC
For the heart that's in you
         Bb majorBb
I'm going for the love
    G minorGm      A augmentedA
That I know will be true
     DmDm
I've had enough
     C majorC
Of those one night stands
         Bb majorBb        C majorC    FF
I'm going for the gold that's in a wedding band
