I'm gold rush Kate from the Golden State [E] with a nugget around my [F#m] neck
[Bm] I keep the red lights burning bright from here to hell and [D] back
I've ducked for silver and for [E] gold from Boulder up to [Bm] Hades
When I hit Coloma [A] boys I made my [Bm] final _ claim
[Bm] Across the high Sierras in the spring of 48
And every man with shovel and pan has stumbled through my [D] gates
Behind these doors whiskey [A] pours and love unflows [E] like _ [Bm] wine
Miners boast of mother's [F#m] loathe they'll dig or else [Bm] die trying _ [G] Elder Elves! _ _ _ _ _

_ _ [Bm] _ _ [F#m] _ _ [Bm] _
They come from far and wide to quell the fever in their souls
And haunts their brain they've gone insane to the glimmer of the [D] gold
The devil must have struggled [A] here down and [E] one way _ back
[Bm] Since I hit Coloma [F#m] boys you never make it [Bm] back
There's Redwood Bill he can drink to spill so can John the Rover
Bad luck Dave is in his grave his gold dust days are [D] over
They fill their pans with blood and [A] sand call to [E] God upstairs
_ [Bm] But in the golden country [F#m] boys floor don't [Bm] hear their prayers [G] Elder Elves! _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[Bm] Cross yourself on hanged man's hill you run into Reno and Pia
When the sky is dark she can read the stars from Mars to Cassiopeia
[D] She comes around when the sun comes [A] down with fortunes [E] to be told
_ [Bm] For a copper penny she'll tell you [F#m] plenty Seth where to [Bm] find the gold
_ [B] Stay away from Snake Oil Jake [E] fool you with [Bm] a fountain pen
One look in his eyes you'll be hypnotized he's [E] got that [D] sleight of hand
Sleek and fat like an old [A] tomcat they say he [E] has nine _ _ [Bm] lives
Snake Oil Jake sure met his [A] fate when they shot him down [D] ten times _
_ _ [Bm] _ Don't stake your claim with the Dogtown Gang or the boys from Rub and Ready
Don't thumb your nose at the Sydney Cove [E] cause the hammer comes [Bm] down heavy
[D] On every jack he tries to [A] hack his way to [E] fortune
_ And [Bm] he's found his last [F#m] line to be [Bm] a millionaire _

_ _ [Bm] Heard the news from Siskiyou [E] the rush is [Bm] moving on
Leaving old Coloma boys and bound for Oregon
_ [D] Here in town tailing piles we've [A] all [E] gone to _ [Bm] rust
One day you boom but pretty [F#m] soon your boomer days [Bm] are bust
_ [F#m] _
_ _ [Bm] Soon prowl sweet the empty streets and boarded up saloon
Seeing them fade from golden days to ghost towns left to [C#] ruin
[D] Was it worth the blood and [A] dirt to take [E] our lives away? _ _ _
_ [F#m] [Bm] Life goes quick so come [F#m] get rich in California
