Maybe nothin's ever gonna come

And nothin' seems to grow outside my window
G C D
I think I'd better go and get me some
C D
Well, I want to get some of the gold in the hills
G C

D
You know they get scared of the cold and the chill
G C
Start prayin' God preserve us

I can't believe how long I've stayed

Tell him I'm done patiently waitin'
