[Verse]
G 
I'm just an old chunk of coal 

          B7                     G7    
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day

      C                              G 
I'm gonna grow and glow till I'm so blue pure perfect

           A                          D     
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face
[Chorus]
     G  
But I'm gonna kneel and pray every day 

         B7                          G7    
Lest I should become vain along the way

     C                    G        Em 
I'm just an old chunk of coal now Lord 

                      G          D        
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day
[Verse]
      G
I'm gonna learn the right way to talk 

            B7                             G7      
I'm gonna search and find a better way to talk

      C                                  G 
I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough edged self 

     A                          D     
Till I get rid of every single flaw 
[Chorus]
      G
I'm gonna be the world's best friend 

          B7                            G7      
I'm gonna go round shaking everybody's hand

      C                          G          Em 
I'm gonna be the cotton pickin' rage of the age 

                     G           D    
Yes I'm gonna be a diamond some day
[Outro]
     C                G                Em
Now I'm just an old chunk of coal now Lord 

     G                D          G        
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day
