Dan Fogelberg - The Power Of Gold Chords

[Verse]
     Em7      Em
The story is told of the
 Em7      Em
Power of gold
         Em7         Em     C     D
And it's lure on the unsuspecting
    Em7          Em
It glitters and shines
   Em7         Em
It badgers and blinds
    Em7        Em      C       D
And constantly needs protecting

[Chorus]
 B7                        Em B7  Em
Balance the cost of the soul you lost
 Em                   D      Cmaj7
With the dreams you lightly sold
D   C   D  Em
Are you under
     B7       Em7
The power of gold?

[Verse]
      Em7        Em
The letters and calls
          Em7         Em
Got you climbing the walls
   Em7      Em      C   D
An everyone needs a favor
     Em7     Em
They beg to remind you
   Em7         Em
Of times left behind you
        Em7      Em        C   D
But you know the past is a loser

[Chorus]
     B7                     Em    B7 Em
The face you're wearing is different now
        Cmaj7    D       Cmaj7
And the days run hot and cold
D   C   D  Em
Are you under
B7           E7  Em
The power of gold?

[Verse]
B7        Em7        Em
You're a creature of habit
  Em7       Em
Run like a rabbit
 Em7         Em            C  D
Scared of a fear you can't name
     Em7      Em
Your own paranoia
    Em7           Em
Is looming before you
     Em7      Em
But nobody thinks that
       C   D
It's a game

[Chorus]
 B7                      Em  B7  Em
Balance the cost of the soul you lost
 Em7      Em         D      Cmaj7
With the dreams you lightly sold
     D    D
Then tell me
      D      Em
That you're free
B7                Em7  Em
Of the power of gold

[End and fade]
D    Em7
The women are lovely
     Em      Em7
The wine is superb
               C
But there's something about the song
 D     Em      Em7
That disturbs you...
