Old Chunk of Coal

D                              D7
I'm just an old chunk of coal
    F#                         Bm   
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday
G                                   D           B7
I'm gonna grow and glow 'til I'm so blue pure perfect
  E                                   A7
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face
D                               D7      
I'm gonna kneel and pray every day
     F#               F#7           Bm
Lest I should become vain along the way
G                          D        B7
I'm just and old chunk of coal now Lord
    E               A7           D
But I'm gonna be a diamond someday


D                                D7
I'm gonna learn the best way to walk
         F#                              Bm
I'm gonna search an find a better way to talk
G                                D           B7
I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough edged self
      E                          A7
'till I get rid of every single flaw
D                              D7
I'm gonna be the world's best friend
      F#                F#7         Bm
Gonna go around shakin' everybody's hand
G                               D           B7
I'm gonna be the cotton pickin' rage of the age
      E7             A7       D
Lord, I'm gonna be a diamond someday
