Diamonds used to be coal,

Look young 'cause they got soul.

That's why they're beautiful.

And my heart used to be cold,
Bmaj9
'Til your hands laid on my soul,
Bmaj9
Baby, that's why you're beautiful.
[Chorus]
F#/E B6/D#
I'm not wondering why,
Emaj7 G#m7
The sky's blue, that's not my business.
F# F#/E D#m7 F#
All I know is I,
E F#/A#
Look up and tell myself,
Bmaj9
"Be patient, love, that could be us."
