Thank You for the Golden Hair

Verse 1

She came down from them smoky hills

With a song worth more than gold

A coat of many colors stitched

By hands that never let go

Pre-Chorus

And I still hear that mountain holler

Ringing out across the years

Chorus

Thank you for the golden hair

Thank you for the songs you shared

Every heart you ever touched

Still carries you around

Thank you for the light you left

The tender truth you said

A million voices singing back

The sweetest sound in town

Verse 2

She wrote about a poor girl's dream

And made it feel like mine

A butterfly that never stopped

Becoming something fine

Pre-Chorus

So I'll keep her records spinning

And I'll pass them down the line

Chorus

Thank you for the golden hair

Thank you for the songs you shared

Every heart you ever touched

Still carries you around

Thank you for the light you left

The tender truth you said

A million voices singing back

The sweetest sound in town

Bridge

She taught me how to hold a note

And how to hold my own

How to work a nine to five

And still come home a queen

Yeah still come home a queen

Chorus

Thank you for the golden hair

Thank you for the songs you shared

Every heart you ever touched

Still carries you around

Thank you for the light you left

The tender truth you said

A million voices singing back

The sweetest sound in town
