Intro:
Am      G  F       C  Am      G F
ooooooooh, ooooooooh, ooooooooh oooooooh

Verse:
C                        Am
The sun shone high those few summer days
C                  Am             Dm
Left us in a soft, wide-eyed haze
Dm            G
It shone like gold
Dm            G
It shone like gold
C                       Am
But just as the moon it shall stray
C       Am
So dawn goes down today
Dm          G
No gold can stay
Dm          G
No gold can stay

Chorus:
F
What if our hard work ends in despair?
C
What if the road won't take me there?
Am              G          F
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold

F
What if to love and be loved's not enough?
C
What if I fall and can't bear to get up?
Am            G            F
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold
          Am    G     F     C    Am     G    F
We could stay goldddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

Verse:
C                          Am
We're on our way through rugged land
C                        Am
Top of that mountain we wanted to stand
Dm             G
With hearts of gold
Dm            G
With hearts of gold
C                           Am
But there is only forward, no other way
C                          Am
Tomorrow was your hope at the end of the day
Dm              G
And gold turns gray
Dm             G
And gold turns gray

Chorus:
F
What if our hard work ends in despair?
C
What if the road won't take me there?
Am              G          F
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold

F
What if to love and be loved's not enough?
C
What if I fall and can't bear to get up?
Am            G            F
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold
          Am    G     F     C    Am     G    F
We could stay goldddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

Bridge:
F          C            Em      F
All of my dreams, they fall and form a bridge
F                 Em        F
Of memories where I can get back
F          C            Em      F
All of my dreams, they fall and form a bridge
F                  Em        F        Am   G     F     C   Am   G    F
Of memories where I can't get back to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
