[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D Bm G E I know you're a woman by the way you burn below D Bm G E I'll tell you secrets so good, you'll never tell a soul D Bm G E Come closer, my bonfire, holds his life like stones D Bm G My years, my life unknown
[Verse 2]
D Bm G E Diamonds from the pavement where the broken glass had been D Bm G E Just like these troubles that I'm leaving to the wind D Bm G E Like sapphires in boxcars speeding towards the end D Bm G E Like thieves, my bad luck grows
[Chorus]
G E Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear A D Crystallize illusions shine forgotten here G E Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear A F D G D Oh, you left some stars in my belly
[Verse 3]
D Bm G E Star-crossed child's love on the band of wedding gold D Bm G E Silver studs of promise hide in the red crushed velvet folds D Bm G E Inaction, intention, like emeralds I stole D Bm G E My speech of costume gold D Bm G E I think I ought to know
[Chorus]
G E Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear A D Crystallize illusions shine forgotten here G E Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear A C# A D G Oh, you left some stars in my belly A D You left some stars in my belly A D You left some stars in my belly
