Copper And Gold

Am
I was born with a heart made of copper and gold
Am
I  polished it down so I would not grow old
        C                                    G
But  the rains they come under ripe blackened skies
         F               G             Am
And they wither my heart despite all I try

Am
Shadow of death, it is trailin' me
Am
It  haunts me on land and it haunts me on sea
C                               G
Try  as I might I just can't get away
      F                 G            Am
It'll haunt me until it kills me one day

Am
My  wife is my darlin' and I am her man
Am
As much as I love her she don't understand
         C                                G
That the ways of the world are not always kind
        F                        G         Am
And the weight of the world is a burden at times

Am
I've  talked to the Devil when I'm down in the hole
Am
He always says he owns my soul
       C                               G
And no matter how much that I beg or I plead
         F                         G            Am
That the day that I die he'll come take it from me

Am
So I leave you this heart made of copper and gold
Am
And may it be yours till you grow old
       C                              G
If the rains ever come and anger your seas
         F                          G        Am
Will you polish that heart and then think of me?
         F                          G        Am
Will you polish that heart and then think of me?
