VERSE:
E A
I saved a lot of money my fortune was untold
A E F# B7
And like a fool I idolized my silver and my gold
E A
My earthly treasures mounted but when I counted thru
A E B7 E
I realized the treasure I had over-looked was you
CHORUS:
E A E
My treasure, unmeasured
E F# B7
But forsaken of the treasure that come from above
B7 A E
My treasure, unmeasured
E B7 E
But it don't hold the heart of the one that I love
(ALTERNATE VERSE; NOT INCLUDED ON MASTER TAKE):
If I had my life before me if I could see it all
I'd stake my claim on things that are secured against downfall
I'd work for earthly treasures like any man would do
But I'd set my sights much higher and I'd be sure that I had you
