Gold Day

Sparklehorse

Text File

I've searched all over the internet for these chords, and haven't been able to find
So I tried figuring it out for myself. I can guarantee you that this is wrong, but I'm
it as an alternate way to play the song, as it sounds fine (and is most likely much 
to play than the actual album version is). Standard tuning, capo on the second fret.

ARTIST: Sparklehorse
SONG: Gold Day
ALBUM: It's a Wonderful Life

C                 Am
  good morning my child
C                Am
  stay with me a while
                 F            C
  you've not got any place to be
            F                C
  won't you sit a spell with me


Am C Am F


C                         Am
  you've got diamonds for eyes
C                      Am
  it's time for you to rise
       F
  and evaporate
         C
  in the sun
            F
  sometimes it can weigh
    C
  a ton

                G     Am    Em
  keep all your crows away
              G         Am  Em
  hold skinny wolves at bay
            C        Am     Em
  in silver piles of smiles
               Am      G       F
  may all your days be gold my child

[same chords throughout, except where specified]

  a necklace of leaves
  spirits in the trees
  and drown all the clocks 'til there's none
  little ambient in the sun

  keep all your crows away
  hold skinny wolves at bay
  in silver piles of smiles
  may all your days be gold my child

     Am     Em     Am      Em
  ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah, hah-ah

  good morning my child
  stay with me a while
  and evaporate in the sun
  sometimes it can weigh a ton

  keep all your crows away
  hold skinny wolves at bay
  in silver piles of smiles
  may all your days be gold my child
  may all your days be gold my child
  may all your days be gold my child
  may all your days be gold my child
