SILVER AND GOLD
{Johnny Marks © 1964}

Silver and gold, silver and gold [C] [Am] [Dm7] [G7]
Ev'ryone wishes for silver and gold [C] [Am] [Dm7] [G7]
How do you measure its worth? [C] [Em] [Am]
Just by the pleasure it gives here on earth. [D7] [G] [C#dim] [Dm7] [G7]
Silver and gold, silver and gold [C] [Am] [Dm7] [G7]
Mean so much more when I see [C] [C7] [F] [A7/E]
Silver and gold decorations [Dm7] [Ebdim] [C/E] [Am7]
On ev'ry Christmas tree. [Dm7] [G7] [C]

Ah, yes, Sharon, that Johnny Marks did write a lot of pop Christmas songs in that era, didn't he?

It'd be nice to have a MIDI or link to an MP3, too, if someone has one.
