Diamond In My Crown Chords by Emmylou Harris

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ As each long day _ [G] rolls by and falls [D] behind me
_ _ In the longs _ of _ [A]
peacefulness I've found _ _ _
[D] Though I'm weary, [G] then there's _ _
_ [D] the [G] start of _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [A] a diamond [D] in my crown _ _ _ _
I have wasted all [G] that life has [D] laid before me
_ I _ have while _ green fields [A] turned to brown _ _ _ _
[D] But I shall not [G] disavow all [D] these ties that _ [G] _ _ [Em] _ _
[D] _ _ hold [A] a diamond [D] in my crown _ _ _ _
[G] Shining founts of may I know
[D] Brighter than all their streets of gold
When the burdens that I carry I [A] will lay down
_ And [Em] _
[A] [D] the sorrows [G] I handle
I'll see [D] them all be _ [G] overthrown
[Am] I'll [D] see a diamond, _ [A] a diamond [D] in my crown
_ With _ the passing [G] of the years I will [D] grow stronger
_ _ Just _ as strong as this old world keeps [A] bending around
_ _ _ [Em] _
[D] And the closer I [G] will be to [D] my sweetest [G] victory
There'll [A]
[D] be a diamond, [A] a diamond in [D] my crown _ _ _ _ _
