F#m         D
Gleaming, twinkling
A          E      F#m       D
Eyes like sinking ships on waters
 E
So inviting, I almost jump in

Chorus:
F#m
I don't like a gold rush, gold rush
                D
I don't like anticipatin' my face in a red flush
                  A/C#
I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch
           E
Everybody wants you
                                           F#m
Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you
Walk past, quick brush
                   D
I don't like slow motion, double vision in rose blush
                   A/C#
I don't like that falling feels
like flying 'til the bone crush
           E
Everybody wants you but I don't like a gold rush

  G              D                    A
What must it be like to grow up that beautiful?
With your hair falling into place like dominos
G         D                   A
I see me padding across your wooden floors
With my Eagles t-shirt hanging from the door
G
At dinner parties,
            D                       A
I call you out on your contrarian shit
And the coastal town we wandered 'round had
                      G
never seen a love as pure as it
             D                         E
And then it fades into the gray of my day-old
tea ‘cause it could never be

Chorus:
'Cause I don't like a gold rush, gold rush
I don't like anticipatin' my face in a red flush
I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch
Everybody wants you
Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you
Walk past, quick brush
I don't like slow motion, double vision in rose blush
I don't like that falling feels
like flying 'til the bone crush
Everybody wants you
But I don't like a gold rush

What must it be like to grow up that beautiful?
With your hair falling into place like dominoes
My mind turns your life into folklore
I can't dare to dream about you anymore

At dinner parties
I won't call you out on your contrarian shit
And the coastal town we never found
will never see a love as pure as it
'Cause it fades into the gray of my day-old tea
‘cause it will never be

Gleaming, twinkling
Eyes like sinking ships on waters
So inviting, I almost jump in
