[Intro]
C G Am Em
F G C G
[Verse 1]
C G Am Em
Shotover River, the gold lies waiting
F G C G
It's years since the color I've seen
C G Am Em
And it's no use in sitting or Lady Luck blaming
F G C
I'll pack up and make the break clean
[Chorus]
G C G
Farewell to the gold that never I found
C C/B Am7 G
Goodbye to the nuggets that somewhere are bound
C G Am Em
For it's only when dreaming that I'll see you gleaming
F G C
Down in the dark deep underground
[Verse 2]
C G Am Em
It's nearly two years since I left my own mother
F G C G
For excitement and gold by the pound
C G Am Em
With Jimmy the prospector, Oh he was another
F G C
And to the hills of Otago we were bound
[Chorus]
G C G
Farewell to the gold that never I found,
C C/B Am7 G
Goodbye to the nuggets that somewhere are bound
C G Am Em
For it's only when dreaming that I'll see you gleaming
F G C
Down in the dark deep underground
{Verse 3]
C G Am Em
Well we worked the Cardrona's dry valley all over
F G C G
Old Jimmy Williams and me
C G Am Em
They were panning good dirt down on winding Shotover
F G C
So we headed down there just to see
[Chorus]
G C G
Farewell to the gold that never I found,
C C/B Am7 G
Goodbye to the nuggets that somewhere are bound
C G Am Em
For it's only when dreaming that I'll see you gleaming
F G C
Down in the dark deep underground
{Verse 4]
C G Am Em
We sluiced and we cradled for day after day
F G C G
Barely making enough to get by
C G Am Em
And then a terrible flood washed poor Jimmy away
F G C
During six stormy days in July
[Chorus]
G C G
Farewell to the gold that never I found,
C C/B Am7 G
Goodbye to the nuggets that somewhere are bound
C G Am Em
For it's only when dreaming that I'll see you gleaming
F G C
Down in the dark deep underground.
[Chorus]
G C G
Farewell to the gold that never I found,
C C/B Am7 G
Goodbye to the nuggets that somewhere are bound
C G Am Em
For it's only when dreaming that I'll see you gleaming
F G C
Down in the dark deep underground.
F G C
Down in the dark deep underground.
