[Intro] D G [Verse 1]
         G                                                       D
Is there ever enough space between us to keep us both honest and true

    D7                                                            G
Why is it so hard just to sit in the yard and stare at the sky so blue

        G
I got a new way of walkin' and a new way of talkin'

G7                     C
Honey, when I'm around you

       C                         G
But it gives me the blues when I got some good news

      D                           G
And you're not there to bring it to
[Verse 2]
G                                                                    D
Life is a blessin', it's a delicatessen of all the little favors you do

    D7
All wrapped up together, no matter the weather

                      G
Baby, you always come through

       G
It's a measure of treasure that gives me the pleasure

   G7                   C
Of loving you the way I do

          C                       G
And you know I would gladly say I need your love badly

    D                             G
And bring these little things to you
[Chorus]
                 C                  G
'Cause you got gold, gold inside of you

          C                  G
You got gold, gold inside of you

             D                  G
Well, I got some gold inside me too
[Instrumental] C G C G D G [Verse 3]
          G
Well, I'm thinkin' I'm knowin' that I gotta be goin'

                            D
You know I hate to say so long

   D7                                                                    G
It gives me an ocean of mixed up emotion, I'll have to work it out in a song

          G
Well, I'm leavin' a lot for the little I got

        G7                        C
But you know a lot of little will do

           C                              G
And if you give me your love I'll let it shine up above

     D                         G
And light my way back home to you
[Chorus]
                 C                  G
'Cause you got gold, gold inside of you

          C                  G
You got gold, gold inside of you

             D                  G
Well, I got some gold inside me too

        C                        G
You got wheels turning inside of you

        C                        G
You got wheels turning inside of you

            D                        G
Well, I got wheels turning inside me too
