Diamond Mine [Verse 1]
D
I hear you talking everywhere Words on the loudspeakers

                  G  C
Hanging in the air   Everywhere

D
And I remember the words You told me too

                                                      G
This town's full of losers Trying to get a piece of you

C                           D
You really think that's true
[Chorus]
A                              G          D
How long will it take Til you open up your eyes

A                                            G    
I've been gone for years You never even realized

    D   G   A           D   G   A
How l--o--n--g      how l--o--n--g
[Verse 2]
D
In a corner of the world on election day

                                            G
You watched your star shatter Then fade away

C                    D
Too many wasted days

D
With your eyes wide open a hand on the wheel

                                                         G
You looked back hard trying to Remember just how it feels

C               D
How does it feel
[Chorus]
A                              G          D
How long will it take Til you open up your eyes

A                                            G    
I've been gone for years You never even realized

    D   G   A           D   G   A
How l--o--n--g      how l--o--n--g
[Bridge]
Em           G                D
What does it take To let you know

                 A
It's all coming down 

Em              G
Don't waste my time
[Instrumental] A G D A G D G A D G A [Verse 3]
D
You used to walk down the street Like the chosen one

                                            G
Everybody got your blessing Now they're gone

C                  D
Where have they gone

D
Did I ever tell you what I thought Of what you did for me

                                                G
Some things cost too much Even when they're free

C                     D
Even when they're free
[Chorus]
A                              G          D
How long will it take Til you open up your eyes

A                                            G    
I've been gone for years You never even realized

    D   G   A           D   G   A             D   G   A
How l--o--n--g      how l--o--n--g     Oh How L--o--n--g
