Diamond Chords by Brandon Heath

_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
My father's father broke this [B] ground, got him onto a laden [D] down, only God knows what
they found beneath. _ _
Now here I stand in my own [B] boots, axe to grind and a point to [D] prove, tangled up in my own
wounds it seems.
I [G] got treasure up in heaven, I got dirt all over me, I [D] have only scraps of surface of
the man I'm meant to be.
I [G] got something down inside of me that only you can see, [Bm] help to dig a little deeper now
[A] and set that [D] diamond free.
_ _ _ _ _ _ Why do I do the things I [A] do, all the things that I don't want to, [D]
act like I don't fear
you at all. _ _
Hard head and a heart of stone, older now [B] but I haven't grown, any riches that I have
to show are small.
I [G] got treasure up in heaven, I got dirt all over me, I [D] have only scraps of surface of

Come _ _ _ _ _ down with your flashlight, underground black as night, no telling what you're gonna
find in [D] me. _
Set [G] it free.

Set [D] it free.
