Bbm Gb

Oh, I'm a dark diamond

Ab Db FmC

I've turned hard and cold

Bbm Ebm7 Ab (OCTAVES: Ab Ab Bb Db Eb)

Once was a jewel with fire in my soul

Bbm Gb

There's two sides of a mirror

Ab Db FmC

One I couldn't break through

Bbm Ebm7 Fm

Stayed trapped on the inside, wound up losing you

Db

Tell me how does it work

Db DbF Gb

How do you make things fit

Fm Bbm

Spent all my life trying to get it right

Ebm7 Ab

I've put it together and it falls apart

Db Db DbF Gb

I thought to myself I might understand

Fm

But when the wall's built

Bbm Ebm7

And the heart hardens

Ab (Db Bbm Ebm7 Ab)*

You get a dark diamond

(Bbm Gb Ebm7 Ab)*

Dark diamond

Oh, I'm a dark diamond

But you're something else

You read me more than I read myself

The one star I could count on

Only comet I could trust

You burnt through my life to the true meaning of love

(CHORUS)

Bbm Gb Ab Db FmC

Bbm Ebm7 Fm

(CHORUS)

Ab (Db Bbm Ebm7 Ab)*

You get a dark diamond

(Bbm Gb Ebm7 Ab)*

Dark diamond

(REPEAT, FADE)
