Weight in Gold

[Intro]

(C#m  B  F#)
(C#m  B  F#)

[First Part]

C#m       B          F#
  When I die, gild my bones

C#m       B          F#
  Wrap me in a silken shroud

C#m      B
  Bury me
              F#                   
With all the gold in the treasuries
    A
 of men

    B
Oh-oh-oh

[Second Part]

C#m      B                   
  Do you recall the way they'd 
 F#
sneer?

C#m              B               
  The way they'd mock our better 
F#
blood?

C#m       B              F#
  Brother, I can still remember

                    Am
All the words our father said

           G#
And didn't say

[Bridge]

Continues after the ad
   A               B            C#m
If I were worth my weight in gold

               B
Perhaps someone would see me

   A             B
If I lived in a castle

          F#
Would the world then care to meet 
me?

A                B
Fill my coffers high with lies

 F#              B
And let a girl pretend

           A7            B      
That she's more than her 
C#    C#m
elegance belies


[Solo]


[Pre-Chorus]

          B               F#
Wealth of riches, wealth of name

C#m         B               F#
  I have it all, and yet I'm still 
the same

C#m             B
  But wealth of family

          F#                       
Wealth of lover, wealth of brother 
            A        F#
keeps me warm, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

C#m         B            F#
  Queen of Ravens lays me down

C#m           B              F#
  Her mask as fragile as my own

C#m          B        F#
  Open-eyed, I see my brother

                      A
Who has never left my side

    G#
A sacrifice

[Final Chorous]

A            B
I would give up all my gold

C#m                      B
For one more day to tease you

A                 B
I would burn my castle down

    F#
For one more chance to see you

A                 B
Fill my heart as you once did

            F#
When it was us against the world

[Outro] A  B  C#m
