D2 D2/F# G D2 As for me and little Casey, we still make the circuit Bm A2 G G In a one-horse trailer and a mobile home. Em Em A2 A2 And she still asks about you all the time; Em Em A2 A{stop} And I guess we never even cross your mind. FIRST Chorus: D D/F# G D But, oh, sometimes I think about you, and the way you used to ride out D D A A4 A In your rhinestones and your sequins, with the sunlight on your hair; D D/F# G D And, oh, the crowd will always love you, but as for me I've come to know D A D D2 D{stop} Everything that glitters.... is not gold.
