another song in the album "sutras"
only two guitar with  picking , and harmonica of course

The song is played in G position, with a capo on the third fret, which means that the key is actually Bb, ..as I don't have a harmonica in Bb, I had to play with a harmonica in A and transpose the track by half a tone, oops!...

No gold worth digging for
Without your golden love
No treasure rich enough
To be without your love
No sorrow deeper than
To be away from you
No distance farther than
A night not spent with you
No diamond brighter than
The light within your eyes
No star I gaze at
Brighter in these skies
No sadness deeper than
This longing for you
I'd give it all up
To be with you
This night of darkness
I lay upon my bed
All alone and lonely
Remembering words you said
No goal worth striving for
Without your golden smiles
Never again we'll part
No more the lonely miles
