Intro
D#
[Verse 1]
D# G#
So much coming in
D# G#
I do not know where to begin
D# G#
I just follow the lead you're pulling
Fm7 Cm
And I get lost in your trail
D# G#
So much more to tell
D# G#
You just ask me if I'm doing well
D# G#
But I do not know what the hell
Fm7 Cm
I just swallow hard
[Chorus]
A#
In your eyes
A#
Black diamonds
G#
I could die
G#
Black diamonds
A#
In your eyes
A#
Black diamonds
G#
I could die
G#
Black diamonds
[Post-Chorus]
G# G# D# D#
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
G# D# G# Fm7
Terrified of what your love's revealing
[Verse 2]
D# G#
So much you can see
D# G#
Should I let you make a woman of me?
D# G#
Should I let you take the mystery from me?
Fm7 Cm
See the inside of my room at night?
D# G#
Sometimes you will find
D# G#
Things I do not know how to leave behind
D# G#
I've been grappling with my mind
Fm7 Cm
I've been stuck inside a jail
[Chorus]
A#
In your eyes
A#
Black diamonds
G#
I could die
G#
Black diamonds
A#
In your eyes
A#
Black diamonds
G#
I could die
G#
Black diamonds
[Post-Chorus]
G# G# D# D#
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
G# D# G# Fm7
Terrified of what your love's revealing
[Bridge]
C#maj7 Fm7
The cold of winter warms my blood and he's hot
D#m
Like a bed of steel
C#maj7
He finds his peace of mind
In the rivers and the whip-poor-wills
C#maj7
I could follow close behind
Fm7 A#
And slowly disappear
D#
But I can never leave him
G# A#
I can never leave him
D#
I can never leave him
G# A#
I can never leave him
D#
I can never leave him
G#
I can never leave him
A#
In his eyes
A#
Black diamonds
Fm7
I could die
G#
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
[Break]
D# D# D# D#
[Verse 3]
(single strum)
D# G#
So much more to do
D# G#
Come on, let me make a man outta you
D# G#
I could gather you and you tell the truth
D# D#
You could cry inside my arms (begin normal strum)
D# G#
You could cry inside my arms like a child
D# G#
You could cry
D# G#
You could cry
[Outro]
