Silver Threads And Golden Needles

Janis Joplin

key:

C F G 
C F C G C

[Chorus]
    F                                C
Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine
                                                         G    G7
And I'll never drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine
           C                             F
You can't buy my love with money for I never was that kind
                            C             G                  C
Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine

[Verse]
         C                               F
I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room
                            C                        G
I just want the love you promised, beneath the halo moon
          C                                F
But you think I should be happy with your money and your name
                    C                G                  C
And hide myself in sorrow while you play your cheatin' game

[Chorus]
         F                                C
Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine
                                                         G    G7
And I'll never drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine
           C                             F
You can't buy my love with money for I never was that kind
                            C             G                  C
Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine
