everything that glitters  Dan Seals



Saw your [D2]picture on a [D2/F#]poster, in a [G]cafe out in [D2]Pheonix;
Guess you're [Bm]still the sweetheart [A2]of the rode[G]o.[G]
As for [D2]me and little [D2/F#]Casey,    [G]we still make the [D2]circuit
In a [Bm]one-horse trailer [A2]and a mobile [G]home.[G]
And [Em]she still asks a[Em]bout you all the [A2]time;[A2]
      Em             Em              A2       A[stop]
And I guess we never even cross your mind.
FIRST CHORUS:
But, oh, some[D]times I think a[D/F#]bout you, and the [G]way you used to [D]ride out
        D                    D                 A          [A4]  A
In your rhinestones and your sequins, with the sunlight on your hair;
And, oh, the [D]crowd will always [D/F#]love you, but as for [G]me I've come to [D]know
     D                  A           D       [D2&4]  D[stop]
Everything that glitters.... is not gold.
VERSE 2:
Well, old [D]Red, he's getting [D/F#]older, and last [G]Saturday he [D]stumbled
But you [Bm]know I just can't [A2]bear to let him [G]go.[G]
Little [D]Casey, she's still [D/F#]growing, and she's [G]started asking [D]questions
And there's [Bm]certain things a [A2]man just doesn't [G]know.[G]
[Em]Her birthday came and you [Em]never even [A2]called;[A2]
  Em             Em                 A2        A[stop]
I guess we never cross your mind at all.
SECOND CHORUS:
But then some[D]times I think a[D/F#]bout you, and the [G]way you used to [D]ride out
        D                    D                 A          [A4]  A
In your rhinestones and your sequins, with the sunlight on your hair;
And, oh, the [D]crowd will always [D/F#]love you, but as for [G]me I've come to [D]know
     D                  A           D       [D2&4]  D
Everything that glitters.... is not gold.
BRIDGE:
Every[Bm]body said you'd [A]make it big some[G]day,[G]
And I [Bm]guess that we were [A]only in your [G]way.[G]
But some[D]day, I'm sure, you're [A]gonna know the [G]cost;[G]
          Em             Em                     A2      A[stop]
Cause for everything you win, there's something lost.
FINAL CHORUS (slowly):
But, oh, some[D]times I think a[D/F#]bout you, and the [G]way you used to [D]ride out
        D                    D                 A          [A4]  A
In your rhinestones and your sequins, with the sunlight on your hair;
And, oh, the [D]crowd will always [D/F#]love you, but as for [G]me I've come to [D]know
     D                  A           D    [Em] [D/F#]  G
Everything that glitters.... is not gold, Oooooooooh
     D                  A[stop]  (a cappella, chord would be D on "gold")
Everything that glitters................. is not gold
OUTRO (while whistling melody):
|D2 |D2/F# |G |D2
|Bm |A2 |G |G
repeat and fade...
The chord fret patterns are:
EADGBe EADGBe EADGBe
---------------------------------------------------------------

D = xx0232 D/F# = 2x0232
D2 = xx0230 D2/F# = 2x0230 D2&4 = xx0030
G = 320003 Bm = x24432 Bm/A = x04432
A = x02220 A2 = x02200 A4 = 002230
(fret 6th string with thumb to get F# bass note where required)
I like fingerpicking the whole song with an occasional strum to emphasize
chords like the A4 and D2&4 which appear for only a single beat rather than
a whole bar. I also like to use D2 and D2/F# instead of D and D/F# in the
second verse (ie. use the same chords as the first verse), although the
latter is actually correct. I often substitute Bm/A for the A chords in the
first half of the bridge. It's not what's on the recording, but I like the
sound and it's an easy transition (continue holding the Bm, but slide your
barred index finger down off the fifth string to get the A bass note).
