G
Verse 1: In a pawn shop in Chicago
on a sunny sumer day
D7
A couple gazes at the wedding
G C G
rings there on display
She smiles and nods her head
as he says Honey that’s for you.
It’s not much but it’s the
D7 G
best that I can do.
D7 G
Chorus: Golden Ring
With one tiny little stone
D7
Waiting there
G
for someone to take it home
D7 G
By itself
it’s just a cold metalic thing
D7 G D7
Only love can make a golden wedding ring.
Verse 2: In a little wedding chapel
later on that after noon
An old up right piano
plays that old familiar tune
Tears roll down her cheeks and happy
thoughts run through her head
As he whispers low with
this ring I thee wed.
Chorus: Golden Ring
With one tiny little stone
Shining ring
now at last it’s found a home
By itself
it’s just a cold metalic thing
Only love can make a golden wedding ring.
Verse 3: In a small two room apartment
as they fight their final round
He says You won’t admit it but I
know you’re leavin’ town.
She says One thing’s for certain
I don’t love you anymore.
And throws down the ring as
she walks out the door.
Chorus: Golden Ring
With one tiny little stone
Cast aside
like the love that’s dead and gone.
By itself
it’s just a cold metalic thing
Only love can make a golden wedding ring.
Ending : In a pawn shop in Chicago
on a sunny sumer day
A couple gazes at the wedding
rings there on display
Golden Ring.
