Intro: B5

B5         A5
I dug up a diamond
          B5
rare and fine
            A5
I dug up a diamond
                B5
in a deep dark mine
                  A5
if only I could cling to
              B5
my beautiful find
            A5
I dug up a diamond
                B5
in a deep dark mine


B5          A5
my gem is special
            B5
Beyond all worth
                  A5
as strong as any metal
                 B5
or stone in the earth
              A5
sharp as any razor
                  B5
or blade you can buy
               A5
bright as any laser
                    B5
or any star in the sky


                 G5
maybe once in a lifetime
                    D5
you'll hold one in your hand
           A5
once in a lifetime
         B5
in this land
                  G5
where the journey ends
                 D5
in a worthless claim
           A5
time and again
               B5
in the mining game

B5          A5
I dug up a diamond
          B5
rare and fine
            A5
I dug up a diamond
                B5
in a deep dark mine
             A5
down in the darkness
                     B5
in the dirt and the grime
            A5
I dug up a diamond
                B5
in a deep dark mine

((solo)) 2x
