KEY OF E.  CAPO 2ND FRET.                 INTRO:      D     D     Bm    Em



VERSE 1:

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



CHORUS:

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


VERSE 2:

Well, old Red, he's getting older, and last Saturday he stumbled
But you know I just can't bear to let him go.
Little Casey, she's still growing, and she's started asking questions
And there's certain things a man just doesn't know.
Her birthday came and you never even called;
I guess we never cross your mind at all.



SECOND CHORUS:

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



BRIDGE:

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



FINAL CHORUS (slowly):

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


OUTRO (while whistling melody):

D     F#m   G     D           D     A     D     G
D     D     G     D.....  (fade out)
