[Intro] E  A  E  A

E
Mornings on the telephone
A
Lovers under different skies
                         E
Looking for a bit of gold

Try to find a better way
A
I bargain for what I can't change
                            E  A  F#m
But you'll never really know
E
September evening blowing in
A
Sleeping with the dog again
                            E
Laid my hopes out on the rug

Louisiana broken hearts
A
Burning fire in the dark
                             E
Delta's waiting for the flood

[Estribillo]

         F#m
Well the river's dry
                 A
Cnd I'm still wondering why
     E
It's so hard
      F#m
But I can't let go
       A
I keep searching for
                  E    A
A little bit of gold
                 E    A
A little bit of gold

E
I need a bit of company
A
The weather on the TV screen
                       E
Says another fist of storms

The time it takes to do it well
    A
I've given my whole life to sell
                    E
For a little bit of gold

[Estribillo]

         F#m
Well the river's dry
               A
I'm still wondering why
  E
It's so hard
      F#m
But I can't let go
       A
I keep searching for
                 E   A
A little bit of gold
                 E   A
A little bit of gold
                E   A
A little bit of gold
                 E   F#m  E
A little bit of gold
