[Verse 1]
G                                   C                       G
The night is growing colder and the stars have lost their shine
G                                                D
I have been forsaken by everything I thought was mine
G                                 C
Written the darkest hour when the final stories told

[Chorus]
   G
no matter how bright I glitter
      D             G
baby, I'll never be gold

[Verse 2]
G                                           C
I believe your finest treasure would be the one you sold me
G                                                       D
but how could I know the legend of all you needed me to be
G                                         C
though I came with sweet intentions for my pockets could not hold

[Chorus]
   G
no matter how bright I glitter
      D             G
baby, I'll never be gold

[Verse 3]
C                                       G
I finally gave up counting the ways you said I let you down
C                                     G                  D
when I fell into that river and overturned you washed me drown
G                       C
sparkle like a diamond, silver like my soul

[Chorus]
   G
no matter how bright I glitter
      D             G
baby, I'll never be gold

[Verse 4]
C
you look so high and low for heaven
           G
I tried so hard to show you the way
C
though I flew on wings of angels
            G               D
my feet were always made of clay
G
come trail them clouds of glory
             C
which you saw nothing to behold

[Chorus]
   G
no matter how bright I glitter
      D             G
baby, I'll never be gold
   C                   G
no matter how bright I glitter
      D             G
baby, I'll never be gold
