the taste of coke."

Golden Gal on her screen
G                              F
Some kind of tube she'd never seen 
                            Dm
Gift to the girl ready to dream
                               G
Hope in new forms, the elderly B
                                       C
Spirit is burning, to hear it for the girls again

      C
So complex and brave!
G                                    F
Power and lure without showing some legs
                                   Dm
Different roads, not just sexual things
                                            G
Went and cut a rude hue, said it did right away
                                      C
Am I keeping it new, and relearning girls again

          F
It's a strange kind of plot,
                C
Who steps and paves the Golden way?
        F                              C
With a humor that is known to quickly put me in my place
        F                G                   C
Every word's so tricky, how we know what to say

F                                    Dm
My gal you're so strong, you should hold your head above them
         C                                G
And you need not ask for much to get my praise

         F                              C
Let me dress up like a Golden Gal and have my Golden day
         F                                C
Let me watch the mark of maleness from a table side in greys
       F             G              C
I can only dream of how I'd be so amazed

F                                  Dm
The gals were right on, when she needed laughs to fall on,
         C                                 G
And for all of this and more I give them praise

Dm                                      C
You'd think the gals should feel so comfortable these days,
G                              F
But sexy genders bring some troubles to the fray,
F
And trouble tears apart
G
Another Golden heart
      Em                                   F                F      Em    Dm
So I want to be the reminder that she's stronger than the bulk on other days

              G
(Golden Gal!) Gave me my strength,
              Em
She said i'll be here for you later boy,
     F              F       Em  Dm
Now run along, you have to fall
              G
(Golden Gal!) Gave me my faith,
            Em
And all it took was some belief,
          F                       F       Em  Dm
I don't believe that she should change at all
              G
(Golden Gal!) Taught me restraint,
                  Em
She said, you'll want more much later, dude,
             F           F       Em  Dm
I'm your everything and not your toy
               G
(Golden Gal!) I'll be beside her,
         Em
I might want to stand in line to find,
     F                F    Em   Dm
The kind of mind she can provide

Dm                                      C

Here for a while I'll follow my Golden Gal.
