If you went away then I'd be left without any pride.

I've given up on schemes, cause every one fell through.

on you.

That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find.

But if you'll stand by me, I'll keep peace of mind. 
        D                            G 
I can't give you the world, but I'll walk with
