[Verse 1]
G                     D             Em                  C                             G
When you ask, how I've been, here without you, I like to say, "I've been fine," and I do

      C                               G             Em             A7                      D    ~(pause)
But we both know the truth, is hard to come by, And if I, told the truth, that's not quite true
[Chorus]
              G         C             G                    Em                        D
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones, Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone

             G         C                   G     Em              G         D             G
Sometimes the cold wind blows a chill in my bones, Some days are diamonds, some days are stones

G                   D          Em                C                      G
Now the face, that I see in the mirror, More and more is a stranger, to me

         C                          G            Em             A7                D
More and more, I can see, there's a danger, In becoming, what I never thought I'd be ~(pause)
[Chorus]
              G         C               G
Some days are diamonds    some days are stones

              Em         A                D
Sometimes the hard times   won't leave me alone

              G        C                    G      Em
Sometimes the cold wind blows a chill in my bones

Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
