Worthless Gold (Live at The Ryman / 2018)

[Chorus]
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold

[Verse 1]
When I was a child
Saw the good in every man
I didn't know
There was blood on every hand
But I labored in my time
And if truth be told
I sold my soul
For worthless gold

[Chorus]
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold

[Verse 2]
Tried to walk that holy path
But I strayed right from the start
Hanging out with all the angels
Heaven in the dark
I wrote those tunes
And left the bones down in the hole
But the only thing I stole
Was worthless gold

[Chorus]
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold

[Verse 3]
Now the way I battled with
All the demons in my mind
Caught between good and evil
Lord, it almost made me blind
Thought that it was something tangible
Something I could hold
But now that I know, all I know
Is that I'd trade all this worthless gold

[Chorus]
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold
Worthless gold, worthless gold

[Outro]
