    F                                C 
Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine 
                                                         G    G7 
And I'll never drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine 
           C                             F 
You can't buy my love with money for I never was that kind 
                            C             G                  C 
silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine

I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room 
                            C                       G 
I just want the love you promised,beneath the halo moon 
          C                                F 
But you think I should be happy with your money and your name 
                    C                G                  C 
And hide myself in sorrow while you play your cheatin' game

And I'll never drown my sorrow in the warm glow of your wine
