Em        C     D         C

I want to live, I want to give.

I've been a miner for a heart of gold.

It's these expressions I never give

That keep me searching for a heart of gold.

C              G          G/F#

And I'm getting old.

Em                                     G

They keep me searching for a heart of gold

C                  C/B  C/A  G

And I'm getting old.

 

I've been to Hollywood, I've been to Redwood.

I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold.

I've been in my mind, it's such a fine line.

That keeps me searching for a heart of gold.

And I'm getting old.

 

Em                      D        Em

Keep me searching for a heart of gold.

You keep me searching and I'm growing old.

Keep me searching for a heart of gold.
