"Gold Heart Locket"
Usually with a banjo, but when he plays it live, there's often a full band accompaniment. Beautiful song.
D, A, Em, G, D
D
All night long I've been riding riding
A Em
I should have been there by now
But these old county roads
Got a lot of deep holes
G D
And the rain keeps pouring down
D
The bridge is washed out and the rising rising
A Em
Waters of the river rush by
And I'm up to my fenders in mud
And to my witness above
D
I'm really stuck this time
G
I've got a gold heart locket on a silver chain
D
Clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain
Em
And the only road back home again Is all but washed away
G
I'm going to cross that river tonight
D
No matter what it takes
A
Although I might die trying
F#m Em
My true love will remain
G D A Em G D
In a gold heart locket on a silver chain
Open it up and she's lovely lovely
Eyes of hazel green
But I close it up fast
Because the rain gets past
And lays a tear down on her cheek
I promised her once that I would never ever
Break her heart again
So lord take me there in a silent prayer
And her locket in my hand
Em
The last thing I remember
D
I was fearing for my life
Em
She was calling out my name
G
From over on the other side
G
I reached out to hold her
D
But the break was just too strong
A
Now the silence just gets colder
G
As the river rages on
D
All night long I've been riding riding
A Em
I should have been there by now
But these old county roads
Got a lot of deep holes
