[Intro] Am G/B C G F C Am G Am C G F Am G F [Chorus]
Am        G/B       C               F
Take this heart of gold and melt it down,

              C            Am   G
And I'll come around, I'll come around.

            Am       G/B     C
I'm treadin' lightly in your eyes

G          F
And honey, I can't live a lie

       Am              G                    F
But a life without you could never steal me now.
[Break] Am G F [Verse 1]
      C                      F
Well, so much time to spend, why paint this house again,

         C                              Am        G
When the floorboards creak and pull you from your slumbers.

    Am        G/B     C
I'd hold you 'til the end,

           F
But honey even oaks must bend

    Am          G             F
If we intend to stick with one another.
[Chorus]
Am        G/B       C               F
Take this heart of gold and melt it down,

              C            Am   G
And I'll come around, I'll come around.

            Am       G/B     C
I'm treadin' lightly in your eyes

G          F
And honey, I can't live a lie

       Am              G                    F
But a life without you could never steal me now.
[Break] Am G F Am C F Am C G Am C F Am G F [Verse 2]
C
Out the door and down the drive,

            F
There is a part of me that tries

     C                         Am G
To keep that highway's call to me away.

        Am   G/B     C
And another further still

        F
That sadly never will

Am                       G         F
Feel at home no matter how long I may stay.
[Chorus]
Am        G/B       C               F
Take this heart of gold and melt it down,

              C            Am   G
And I'll come around, I'll come around.

            Am       G/B     C
I'm treadin' lightly in your eyes

G          F
And honey, I can't live a lie

       Am              G                    F
But a life without you could never steal me now.
[Break] Am G F Am G F C G Am C F Am G F Am G F Am C F [Outro]
         Am               G                    F
I said a life without you could never steal me now
