Intro
G#
[Verse 1]
G# C#
So much coming in
G# C#
I do not know where to begin
G# C#
I just follow the lead you're pulling
A#m7 Fm
And I get lost in your trail
G# C#
So much more to tell
G# C#
You just ask me if I'm doing well
G# C#
But I do not know what the hell
A#m7 Fm
I just swallow hard
[Chorus]
D#
In your eyes
D#
Black diamonds
C#
I could die
C#
Black diamonds
D#
In your eyes
D#
Black diamonds
C#
I could die
C#
Black diamonds
[Post-Chorus]
C# C# G# G#
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
C# G# C# A#m7
Terrified of what your love's revealing
[Verse 2]
G# C#
So much you can see
G# C#
Should I let you make a woman of me?
G# C#
Should I let you take the mystery from me?
A#m7 Fm
See the inside of my room at night?
G# C#
Sometimes you will find
G# C#
Things I do not know how to leave behind
G# C#
I've been grappling with my mind
A#m7 Fm
I've been stuck inside a jail
[Chorus]
D#
In your eyes
D#
Black diamonds
C#
I could die
C#
Black diamonds
D#
In your eyes
D#
Black diamonds
C#
I could die
C#
Black diamonds
[Post-Chorus]
C# C# G# G#
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
C# G# C# A#m7
Terrified of what your love's revealing
[Bridge]
F#maj7 A#m7
The cold of winter warms my blood and he's hot
G#m
Like a bed of steel
F#maj7
He finds his peace of mind
In the rivers and the whip-poor-wills
F#maj7
I could follow close behind
A#m7 D#
And slowly disappear
G#
But I can never leave him
C# D#
I can never leave him
G#
I can never leave him
C# D#
I can never leave him
G#
I can never leave him
C#
I can never leave him
D#
In his eyes
D#
Black diamonds
A#m7
I could die
C#
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
[Break]
G# G# G# G#
[Verse 3]
(single strum)
G# C#
So much more to do
G# C#
Come on, let me make a man outta you
G# C#
I could gather you and you tell the truth
G# G#
You could cry inside my arms (begin normal strum)
G# C#
You could cry inside my arms like a child
G# C#
You could cry
G# C#
You could cry
[Outro]
G# D
