Miley Cyrus – Golden G String Chords

[Intro]

G D G D
 
[Verse 1]

G                  D
 I woke up in Montecito
      G                     D G
I was thinkin' about my life
        C                   G
And the questions made more questions
        D
Starin' out into the night
          G               D      G
Yes, I've worn the golden g-string
                     D  G
Put my hand into hellfire
  C             G              
I did it all to make you love me 
             D
and to feel alive
 
[Chorus]

C                                    
Oh, that's just the world 
                  G
that we're livin' in
    C                                              
The old boys hold all the cards 
                       G  D
and they ain't playin' gin
    C                            
You dare to call me crazy, 
         G                  C
have you looked around this place?
         A7
I should walk away
             D
Oh, I should walk away
                 G
But I think I'll stay
 

[Verse 2]
                         D
There are layers to this body
       G              D
Primal sex and primal shame
     C                G
They told me I should cover it
     D
So I went the other way
      G                D
I was tryin' to own my power
          G                 D
Still I'm tryin' to work it out
       C                  G           
And at least it gives the paper 
          D
somethin' they can write about

[Chorus]

C                                
Oh, that's just the world 
                  G
that we're livin' in
    C                                       
The old boys hold all the cards 
                       G  D
and they ain't playin' gin
    C                            
You dare to call me crazy, have 
    G                  C
you looked around this place?
         A7
I should walk away
             D
Oh, I should walk away
                 G
But I think I'll stay
 

[Bridge]
       G                D
So the mad man's in the big chair
        G               D
And his heart's an iron vault
   C                       G            
He says "If you can't make ends meet, 
       D
honey, it must be your fault"
       G            D
We all focus on the winners
        G                D
And get blinded by their shine
      C               G          
Maybe caring for each other's 
         D   
just too 1969

 
[Chorus]

C                                   
Oh, that's just the world 
                  G
that we're livin' in
    C                                       
The old boys hold all the cards 
                       G D
and they ain't playin' gin
    C                              
You dare to call me crazy, have 
    G                  C
you looked around this place?
         A7
I should walk away
             D
Oh, I should walk away
                 G
But I think I'll stay
 

[Outro]
                 C     G   D
And I think I'll stay, yeah
           G
I have too much to lose
                C   G D
So I think I'll stay
             G
I can't walk away
