Standard (EADGBE)

And play it in this order:

Intro

x4

18 karat gold wouldn't fill the hole

 The bleeding hole in her heart, that's made from cicumstances at home

 Because they kept pulling her hair, and so it choked her words

 She don't sleep at night, afraid to turn out the light

 And she's home

x2

 I thought 18 karat gold would save a lonely soul

 But she don't sleep at night, afraid to turn out the light

 Cause they kept pulling her hair, wouldn't leave her alone

 But if only I could read her mind and release that stone

(Just strum this part, no picking)

 In her heart where the sadness grows, I'd operate with this knife

 And cut a big fat giant hole, to fill with gold and light

 But there's an endless battle to be won

 And me I ain't a man with an educated mind

 And soon, you won't have the strength to carry on

F Am D-A-Bm (<---Pick "D-A-Bm")

So you scream about it in the night.....

(Start to pick again!)

 Oh, in the night ...

 In the night ...

 Oh, in the night ...

 My 18 karat gold, it fills a dirty hole

 A dirty bleeding hole in my heart, you people think it's made from circumstances at home

 Well if someone ever should be pulling your hair, then I guess you should leave them alone

 And now you want me to read your mind and release that stone

(stop picking and strum!)

 That stone in your heart where the sadness grows. You know I, I'd operate with this knife

 And cut a big fat f**king hole, to fill with gold and light

 But there's an endless battle to be won

 And me I ain't a man with an educated mind

 And soon, you won't have the strength to carry on

 And so you scream about it in the night

 There's an endless battle to be won

 And me I ain't a man with an educated mind

You won't have the strength to carry on

F Am D A Bm (<--Start picking from D)

So you scream about it in the night

 Oh, in the night ...

 In the night ...

 Oh, in the night ...

(Pick slow and end...)

Hope its good enought! :)
