Silver And Gold

G


[Verse 1]
   G             Am
We had to go and leave our homes
D                   G
Some died young and some died old
    G                       Am
The roads were long but our hearts were strong
D                    G
Some went down, some beat the wrong


[Chorus]
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D
Took away my son
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D     G
Took away my son, away


[Verse 2]
      G                    Am
Yeah, some were sailing to other lands
    D                       G
And we were starting to the rocking glens
G            Am
Roving here, roving there
D                G
Found again love to be there


[Chorus]
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D
Took away my son
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D     G
Took away my son, away


[Verse 3]
  G                 Am
Until this day they had no shame
    D                   G
For gamblers' life it's all a game
G               Am
We are proud to be alive
   D                  G
To sing this song for father's life


[Chorus]
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D
Took away my son
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D     G
Took away my son, away


[Verse 4]
   G             Am
We had to go and leave our homes
D                   G
Some died young and some died old
    G                       Am
The roads were long but our hearts were strong
D                    G
Some went down, some beat the wrong


[Chorus]
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D
Took away my son
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D     G
Took away my son, away

G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D
Took away my son
G
Silver and gold, silver and gold
C            D     G
Took away my son, away
