Chords

[Intro] Bm [Verse 1]
Bm          D  A
I dug up a diamond

          Bm
Rare and fine

           A
I dug up a diamond

                Bm
In a deep dark mine

                D    A
If only I could cling to

             Bm
My beautiful find

            A
I dug up a diamond

                Bm
In a deep dark mine
Bm [Verse 2]
           D  A
My gem is special

           Bm
Beyond all worth

                  A
As strong as any metal

                  Bm
Or stone in the earth

              D  A
Sharp as any razor

                 Bm
Or blade you can buy

              A
Bright as any laser

                   Bm
Or any star in the sky
[Chorus]
        D       G
Maybe once in a lifetime

                       D
You'll hold one in your hand

          A
Once in a lifetime

         Bm
In this land

           D      G
Where the journey ends

                 D
In a worthless claim

            A
Time and again

              Bm
In the mining game
[Solo] A Bm x4 [Verse 3]
            D   A
I dug up a diamond

          Bm
Rare and fine

             A
I dug up a diamond

                Bm
In a deep dark mine

              D    A
Down in the darkness

                     Bm
In the dirt and the grime

              A
I dug up a diamond

                Bm
In a deep dark mine
[Reprise] G D A Bm x3 G
