Verse 1
CI (x32010@1)gave you a band of silver
                      FThere (133211@1)was no diamond ring

Said: "Baby where we're going
                      Cgot (x32010@1)no use for such things"

You will find all the gems
                           Fthat (133211@1)you could want right here

On the interstates and highways
                C80,000 (x32010@1)miles a year.

CHORUS
CThere (x32010@1)are diamonds in the asphalt
                      GAin't (320003@1)that what they say

Ain't that why the blacktop
                  CGlitters (x32010@1)in that way

There's many a fool's follow it
                      Fto (133211@1)the ends of their days
                 GIt's (320003@1)not their fault

Blame it on false promises
                           CAnd (x32010@1)the diamonds in the asphalt

Verse 2
CYou (x32010@1)were always searchin'
                              Ffor (133211@1)some treasure you don't find

I have followed you this far
              CBut, (x32010@1)I don't mind

May - be - sometimes
                        Fwe (133211@1)must carry a heavy load

we get richer with every mile
                          Cthat (x32010@1)we drive along this road  [CHORUS]

CWe (x32010@1)have come so far
                         FStill (133211@1)we have so far to go

I hope to God, that someone
                        CWill (x32010@1)be coming to this show

And the babies are cryin'
                        FAnd (133211@1)I feel like cryin' too

But it's too late to turn back now
                   CEven (x32010@1)if we wanted too [CHORUS]
