Judy Collins - The Lovin' Of The Game
[Intro]
C D F C D F C
[Verse 1]
D F
I watched the Feather River glide
C
Over shining golden sand
D F
Struck the silver ribbon wide
C
Held a million in my hand
[Verse 2]
G/B Am
But besides the looking for
The finding's always tame
C D F
And there's nothing drives a gambler
C
Like the lovin' of the game
[Verse 3]
D F
All my life I've searched around
C
Travelin' hard from town to town
D F
But I never really found
C
Anything to tie me down
[Verse 4]
G/B Am
Still I would not trade my time
For a solid diamond claim
C D F
No, I would not trade a fortune
C
For the lovin' of the game
[Instrumental]

I hope that things turn out for you
D F
All these good times goin' by
C
Got to get ourselves a few
[Verse 6]
G/B Am
Still I would not trade my time
For a solid diamond claim
