Slaid Cleaves - Go For The Gold
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: D A7 D
G
There's only one rule that you must heed
D A7
It conquers fear, hatred and greed
D G
It trumps all others, your soul to feed
D A7 D
There's only one rule you'll ever need
N.C. D G
You could be Hindu, you may be Sikh
D A7
It makes no difference what tongue you speak
D G
You could pray to Allah, or be an Atheist
D A7 D D7
You will be righteous, if you remember this
CHORUS:
G D
It ain't the silver, it ain't the bronze
A A7
It's the foundation that all rests upon
D G
No precious metal will save your soul
D A7
But if you seek glory
N.C. D
Go for the gold
INSTRUMENTAL: D G D A7 D G D A7 D
N.C. D G
Some so-called Christians, from time to time
D A7
Forget this rule and become blind
D G
They use their church to try and separate
D A7 D D7
When it's common ground that can make us great
BRIDGE:
G
Forget those silly little laws
D
That thou shalt not, days of the week
E
How to dress, who stoned who
A A7
What you can and cannot eat
N.C. D G
When you go home now, remember, please
D A7
To count your blessings, down on your knees
D G
And make a promise, to do the best you can
D A7 D D7
To even be a friend to your fellow man
CHORUS:
G D
It ain't the silver, it ain't the bronze
A A7
It doesn't matter what team you're on
N.C. D G
No precious metal will save your soul
D A7
But if you seek glory
N.C. D
Go for the gold
