Fourteen Carat Gold

C                                                       G7 
A chain of steel a wall of stone could not keep me from you 

                                                      C 
But while your finger wears a ring of gold what can I do 

                                   C7                  F 
I'm burning up with love but still I'm left out in the cold 

G7                                               C 
Because you wear a yellow band of fourteen karat gold 

  
                                               G7 
I never should have let my heart go roaming by itself 

                                                       C 
But it gets awful lonesome when your heart sets on the shelf 

                                    C7             F 
I should have tied it with a string so it could be controlled 

G7                                                C 
To stay away from a yellow band of fourteen karat gold 

  
                                             G7 
I realize that I was wrong that I was all to blame 

                                                C 
If there's a ring upon her finger never fan the flame 

                                  C7              F 
I'm ready now to pay the price of loving much too bold 

G7                                               C
