Verse 1:

Aadd2  C#m 
       We got stuck here for the winter. 
Aadd2  C#m         
       Blinded by golden dollar signs. 
Aadd2  C#m 
       We built some simple structures. 
Aadd2  C#m 
       Temporary, not permanent. 
Aadd2  C#m 
       But each year we dug much deeper. 
Aadd2  C#m 
       And each year things got more serious. 
Aadd2  C#m 
       Each year our hearts grew weaker. 
Aadd2  C#m 
       Blinded by golden dollar signs. 


F                 C 
We never meant to stay here. 
        F                  C 
We were here for the gold, here for the gold, here for the gold. 


Bridge:
 
F 
Put a lump of coal in my hand. 
G 
Squeeze just as tight as I can. 
Am 
Hope for a brand new diamond. 
C 
I know it's slight but it's all I can. 
F 
I promise honey that when we get paid. 
G 
We'll pack our things and we'll move away. 
Am 
A thousand miles from this frozen lake. 
C 
We'll find a place where we both can stay. 
F 
We'll find a city with a million people. 
G 
Find an apartment where the rent is real low. 
Am 
We'll disappear and no one will notice. 
C 
How about it Darling? We could both live downtown! 


F                 C 
We never meant to stay here. 
        F                  C 
We were here for the gold, here for the gold, here for the gold. 

Final Chours 
F                 G 
We never meant to stay here. 
        Am                  C 
We were here for the gold, here for the gold, here for the gold. 
F                 G 
We never meant to stay here. 
        Am                  C 
But we're just dumb animals with our paws in the hole, grasping gold.
 

F                    G 
Now we're stuck in a small town, 
Am                       C 
out on the shield, but it lost it's appeal long ago. 
   F                        G 
We wake up at dawn and kiss our wives on the forehead 
   Am                       C 
and we slowly make our way into the caves where we will forget, 
F                   G 
the faces of our children and our small regrets 
   Am                             C 
Like, I should have kept that lucky penny while I had the chance 


F                 C 
We never meant to stay here.
