[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
        Am                    Em
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
           Am           Em
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                               G
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
  C            G                  C         Am
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?
          Am                      Em
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
            Am                 Em
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                               G
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
  C            G                  C         Am
Terrified of what your love's revealing
 
[Bridge]
F                                               Am
The cold of winter warms my blood and he's hot
                    Gm
Like a bed of steel
                            F
He finds his peace of mind
 
In the rivers and the whip-poor-wills
 
F
I could follow close behind
       Am              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
         Am
I could die
       C
And I wake up in a cold sweat on your ceiling
 
[Break]
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
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   C
