[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] As a little girl I [Bb] came down in the [Eb] water [Bb] With a [Eb] little stone in [Bb] my hand
[Eb] It shimmered and sang, I knew every [Bb] way [Eb] As a little girl [Bb] I came down
In a little while I passed, and I thought of you
Heaven [Gm] only [C] knows [Bb] what's holding us But [Cm] there's a little thing [Bb] so cool
[Eb] In the very [Bb] natural [Eb] world [Bb] But if it was mine all along
I'm gonna find [Eb] it, you're shining [Bb]
I can [Eb] see you're [Bb] smiling
I can see what's in my [Ab] heart I am [Eb] holding on to you
Like a [Bb] diamond in [Eb] the rough [Bb] Every [C] [Bb] [Eb] now and then I [Bb] see
That [Eb] I am dead in the somewhere Where the [Bb] gold is so deep
[Cm] I was angry [Bb] back then, [Eb] and you know I [Bb] still [Eb] am
But [Ab] now I [Eb] have lost too [Bb] much sleep I'm gonna find [Eb] it, you're shining
[Bb]
I can see [Eb] you're [Bb] smiling I can see what's in [Eb] my heart
I am holding on to you Like a [Bb] diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
Six [Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
little girls, I just wanna make it six little girls
[Ab] In [Gm] my dreams I [F] go down [Gm] in the water [Bb]
With a little [Eb] girl in [Bb] my arms
It [Eb] shimmered [Bb] and sang, [Eb] and we know [Bb] every day, [Eb] every day
[Ab]
In [Bb] my dreams I go down, I go down
[Eb] You're [Bb] shining, I can [Eb] see you You're [Bb] smiling, that's enough
[Ab] I [Eb]
am holding on to you Like a [Bb] diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
