SILVER AND GOLD

(D)Well I met an old man, walkin down the street His (A7)clothes were torn and tattered With (D)sandals on his feet And I stopped to help him and lend him a hand He said (A7)I love you so much but you must understand Cho: (N.C.) Silver and (D)gold, might buy you a home But things of this (A7)world, they won't last you (D)long And time has a way of turning us old And time can't be (A7)bought back with silver and (D)gold (D)And he said to me let's rest for awhile For (A7)I have some good news to (D)share with you child He said you can't change this old world The people need to know, that a (A7)dear saviour died here A long long time ago and Repeat cho: (D)His eyes shown like diamonds and his smile was Heaven sent His (A7)hair was long and flowing and his (D)back was slightly bent And I knew, he knew it, for that day I changed And as (A7)I watched him walk on, I forgot to get his name He said 2nd Cho: (N.C.)Silver and (D)gold, can't buy you a home When this life has (A7)ended and your time is (D)gone But you can live in a world, where you'll never grow old And things can't be (A7)bought there, with silver and (D)gold And time can't be (A7)bought back, with silver and (D)gold
