Gold Heart Locket by Jeff Black


                            Gold Heart Locket


Capo:no capo

Usually with a banjo, but when he plays it live, there's often a full band 
accompaniment.
 
D, A, Em, G, D
D
All night long I've been riding riding
        A                               Em
I should have been there by now
But these old county roads
Got a lot of deep holes
            G                      D
And the rain keeps pouring down
     D
The bridge is washed out and the rising rising
 A                                Em
Waters of the river rush by
And I'm up to my fenders in mud
And to my witness above
              D
I'm really stuck this time
 
               G
I've got a gold heart locket on a silver chain
                D
Clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain
            Em
And the only road back home again Is all but washed away
G
I'm going to cross that river tonight
        D
No matter what it takes 
                             A
Although I might die trying
     F#m                   Em
My true love will remain
        G                                        D A Em G D
In a gold heart locket on a silver chain
 
Open it up and she's lovely lovely
Eyes of hazel green
But I close it up fast
Because the rain gets past
And lays a tear down on her cheek
I promised her once that I would never ever
Break her heart again
So lord take me there in a silent prayer
And her locket in my hand
 
     Em
The last thing I remember 
        D
I was fearing for my life
           Em
She was calling out my name 
            G
From over on the other side
 G
I reached out to hold her
                                        D
But the break was just too strong
           A
Now the silence just gets colder
          G
As the river rages on
 
D
All night long I've been riding riding
        A                               Em
I should have been there by now
But these old county roads
Got a lot of deep holes
            G                      D
And the rain keeps pouring down
     D
The bridge is washed out and the rising rising
 A                                Em
Waters of the river rush by
And I'm up to my fenders in mud
And to my witness above
              D
I'm really stuck this time
 
               G
I've got a gold heart locket on a silver chain
                D
Clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain
            Em
And the only road back home again Is all but washed away
G
I'm going to cross that river tonight
        D
No matter what it takes 
                             A
Although I might die trying
     F#m                   Em
My true love will remain
        G                                        D A Em G D
