VERSE 1: 
         D2           D2/F#        G           D2 
Saw your picture on a poster, in a cafe out in Pheonix; 
             Bm                   A2         G        G 
Guess you're still the sweetheart of the rodeo. 
       D2            D2/F#     G                 D2 
As for me and little Casey,    we still make the circuit 
     Bm                A2           G       G 
In a one-horse trailer and a mobile home. 
    Em              Em               A2       A2 
And she still asks about you all the time; 
      Em             Em              A2       A{stop} 
And I guess we never even cross your mind. 


FIRST Chorus: 
             D              D/F#              G               D 
But, oh, sometimes I think about you, and the way you used to ride out 
        D                    D                 A          A4  A 
In your rhinestones and your sequins, with the sunlight on your hair; 
             D                 D/F#                 G               D 
And, oh, the crowd will always love you, but as for me I've come to know 
     D                  A           D       D2  D{stop} 
Everything that glitters.... is not gold. 


VERSE 2: 
          D                 D/F#            G           D 
Well, old Red, he's getting older, and last Saturday he stumbled 
        Bm                A2              G       G 
But you know I just can't bear to let him go. 
       D                  D/F#               G              D 
Little Casey, she's still growing, and she's started asking questions 
            Bm               A2               G      G 
And there's certain things a man just doesn't know. 
Em                        Em         A2        A2 
Her birthday came and you never even called; 
  Em             Em                 A2        A{stop} 
I guess we never cross your mind at all. 


SECOND Chorus: 
             D              D/F#              G               D 
But then sometimes I think about you, and the way you used to ride out 
        D                    D                 A          A4  A 
In your rhinestones and your sequins, with the sunlight on your hair; 
             D                 D/F#                 G               D 
And, oh, the crowd will always love you, but as for me I've come to know 
     D                  A           D       D2  D 
Everything that glitters.... is not gold. 


BRIDGE: 
     Bm              A               G       G 
Everybody said you'd make it big someday, 
      Bm                 A            G        G 
And I guess that we were only in your way. 
        D                     A              G          G 
But someday, I'm sure, you're gonna know the cost; 
          Em             Em                     A2      A{stop} 
Cause for everything you win, there's something lost. 


FINAL Chorus (slowly): 
             D              D/F#              G               D 
But, oh, sometimes I think about you, and the way you used to ride out 
        D                    D                 A          A4  A 
In your rhinestones and your sequins, with the sunlight on your hair; 
             D                 D/F#                 G               D 
And, oh, the crowd will always love you, but as for me I've come to know 
     D                  A           D    Em D/F#  G 
Everything that glitters.... is not gold,           Oooooooooh 
     D                  A{stop}  (a cappella, chord would be D on "gold") 
Everything that glitters................. is not gold
