Out On The Shield

	  		
Intro: 

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

Fill  

F 

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.

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!
tabchorus
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.
