Golden Ring George Jones D In a pawn shop in Chicago on a sunny sumer day A7 D A couple gazes at the wedding rings there on display She smiles and nods her head as he says Honey that's for you. A7 D It's not much but it's the best that I can do. D Golden Ring with one tiny little stone A7 D Waiting there for someone to take it home By itself it's just a cold metalic thing A7 D Only love can make a golden wedding ring. D In a little wedding chapel later on that after noon A7 D An old up right piano plays that old familiar tune Tears roll down her cheeks and happy thoughts run through her head A7 D As he whispers low with this ring I thee wed. D Golden Ring with one tiny little stone A7 D Shining ring now at last it's found a home By itself it's just a cold metalic thing A7 D Only love can make a golden wedding ring. D In a small two room apartment as they fight their final round A7 D He says You won't admit it but I know you're leavin' town. She says One thing's for certain I don't love you anymore. A7 D And throws down the ring as she walks out the door. D Golden Ring with one tiny little stone A7 D Cast aside like the love that's dead and gone. By itself it's just a cold metalic thing A7 D Only love can make a golden wedding ring. D In a pawn shop in Chicago on a sunny sumer day A7 G D A couple gazes at the wedding rings there on display Golden Ring
