DABmGA 18 karat gold wouldn't fill the hole DABmGA The bleeding hole in her heart, that's made from cicumstances at home DABmGA Because they kept pulling her hair, and so it choked her words DABmGA She don't sleep at night, afraid to turn out the light DABm And she's home DABm x2 GA
DABmGA I thought 18 karat gold would save a lonely soul DABmGA But she don't sleep at night, afraid to turn out the light DABmGA Cause they kept pulling her hair, wouldn't leave her alone DABmGA But if only I could read her mind and release that stone
(Just strum this part, no picking)
DAEmBm In her heart where the sadness grows, I'd operate with this knife DAEmBm And cut a big fat giant hole, to fill with gold and light
FAmDm But there's an endless battle to be won FAmDm And me I ain't a man with an educated mind FAmDm And soon, you won't have the strength to carry on F Am D-A-Bm (<---Pick "D-A-Bm") So you scream about it in the night.....
(Start to pick again!) DABm Oh, in the night ... DABm In the night ... DABmGA Oh, in the night ...
DABmGA My 18 karat gold, it fills a dirty hole DABmGA A dirty bleeding hole in my heart, you people think it's made from circumstances at home DABmGA Well if someone ever should be pulling your hair, then I guess you should leave them alone DABmGA And now you want me to read your mind and release that stone
(stop picking and strum!)
DAEmBm That stone in your heart where the sadness grows. You know I, I'd operate with this knife DAEmBm And cut a big fat f**king hole, to fill with gold and light
FAmDm But there's an endless battle to be won FAmDm And me I ain't a man with an educated mind FAmDm And soon, you won't have the strength to carry on FAmDm And so you scream about it in the night
FAmDm There's an endless battle to be won FAmDm And me I ain't a man with an educated mind FAmDm You won't have the strength to carry on F Am D A Bm (<--Start picking from D) So you scream about it in the night
DABm Oh, in the night ... DABm In the night ... DABmGA Oh, in the night ...
