The Highest Bidder
Recorded by Hank Snow
Written by Mary Jean Shurtz, Boudleaux Bryant, Hank Snow

C F
You put your heart upon an auction block and sold it
G7 C
Selfish greed and envy were the auctioneers
G7 C F
The highest bidder won your heart but he can't hold it
G7 C
Love that's bought with gold can only end in tears

G7 C
The price I offered was my true love and devotion
D7 G7
But you laughed and said that love had had its day
C F
When at your feet I laid a heart filled with emotion
G7 C
You scorned the only price that I could pay

F
May the golden price he paid you for your love dear
G7 C
Keep you with him may you never drift apart
G7 C F
Cause at the auction of regret all tears are worthless
G7 C
Bids are low for second-handed broken hearts

G7 C
When all your wealth and riches cease to give you pleasure
D7 G7
When you tire of playing princess you'll recall
C F
That love alone is life's true everlasting treasure
G7 C
And my bid it was the highest after all
