The Golden Crystal Kingdom Chords by Vincent Neil Emerson

[Intro]

D  Cadd9 G D  C  D
Cadd9 G D  C  D
 
 
[Verse]

D            Cadd9     G         D
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
        C               
Ah, but heavier I found 
                      D
 the notion to put it down 
                        
I been playin’ in their 
Cadd9 G         D
Honky Tonks and bars
        C                         
But the babbling of the crowd has
          D     Cadd9 G D C D
 lost its charm
 
 
[Verse]

D                     
Well they dress up in 
      Cadd9  G       D 
their finest Western clothes
         C                     
Yeah and where they get it from,
        D
 nobody knows
                          
And the guitar sounds are 
Cadd9   G        D
howlin’ high and loud
         C                        
That old pedal steel comes driftin’
         D
 like a cloud
 
 
[Chorus]

         Em              
Ain't it funny how their 
                 A
jewelry turns to rust 
        F#m                
And the songs they play
                   G
 are covered up in dust
          Em                 
If you're lookin' for a dance, 
               A
you'll find it there 
       G              A      
In the Golden Crystal Kingdom 
       D
on the square
 
 
[Solo]

Cadd9 G D  C  D
Cadd9 G D  C  D
 
 
[Verse]

D                   
I been drownin’ out 
        Cadd9    G     D
the bad thoughts in my mind
          C                        
I've been looking for a home that 
             D
I just can't find
                       Cadd9     
And the devil's always sparklin’ 
G      D
in the light
       C                      
And it shines into my face 
          D       Cadd9  G  D  C  D
until I'm blind
 
 
[Verse]

D                           
Well, I tried to leave, but 
   Cadd9    G        D
I could not find the door
         C                  
Yeah and I don’t wanna play 
              D
this stage no more
                  Cadd9 G     D
I wish I was back in my Texas home
    C                     
I'd rather sing this song 
               D
at the Country Store
 
 
[Chorus]

         Em              
Ain't it funny how their 
                 A
jewelry turns to rust
        F#m           
And the songs they play 
                  G
are covered up in dust 
          Em                  
If you're lookin' for a dance, 
               A
you'll find it there
       G              A      
In the Golden Crystal Kingdom 
       D
on the square
 
 
[Outro]
