Danny Derden Poet Lyric

Everyone's Searching

"Everyone's Searching"
(Willie Nelson Style; 4/4 Rhythm)

Verse 1
(G) Some want their diamonds, (C) some want their gold
(G) Some want to stay young and (D) never grow old
(G) Some want only to (C) make love
(G) Others want a love to (D) hold
(G) Some want to (C) save their eternal (G) soul

Verse 2
(G) Some seek for pleasure, (C) some look for truth
(G) Some hunt for the fountain of (D) eternal youth
(G) Some want such power, (C) some want such fame
(G) Many hunt for fortune, (D) others just a name

Chorus
(C) Everyone's searching, (G) nobody finds
(C) Everyone's looking, but (G) everyone's blind
(C) All play the jester, (G) all play the fool
(A7) For nobody (D) plays by the golden rule

Verse 3
(G) Some want a cause on (C) which to spend their life
(G) Others long for death (D) just to end their strife
(G) Some want their diamonds, (C) some want their gold
(G) Some want to stay young and (D) never grow old

Chorus
