INTRO: ||: C/E F C/E G :|| (2x)

Verse 1
 C/E        F         Am     G
   Do you believe in a restoration
 C/E       F         Am     G
   of a broken life?
 C/E        F          Am          G
   Hiding behind a face, yeah, you never know
C/E     F              Am    G
   what you might find.
 C/E            F       Am            G
   There in the darkness, beneath the surface
 C/E  F           Am     G
   of time and space,
 C/E          F             Am         G
   could be a treasure that you'd only see through the
C/E F
   eyes of grace.

Chorus 1
   G            F              C
   Lookin' for a diamond in the black coal,
 Am                      G
   it feels good when you strike gold.
     F               C
   ... diamond in the black coal.
   Bbsus2                         F/A   Dm
   If you never look, then you're never gonna know!

Verse 2
 C/E             F       Am            G
   Well, it's so sad when something so radiant
 C/E  F             Am     G
   is kept from the light,
 C/E           F         Am        G
   'cause I've seen divine transformation
 C/E    F        Am     G
   that Jesus provides!
 C/E          F              Am       G
   And like a jeweler with a lifeless gemstone,
 C/E      F        Am     G
   he can make you shine! You could be a...

Chorus 2
   F                 C
   ... diamond in the black coal,
 Am                      G       F
   it feels good when you strike gold.
   F                 C
   ... diamond in the black coal.
 Am                              G
   You've got'ta look, or you're never gonna know!
