[Verse 1]
Em A
He was stopped at the gates to the city.
Em A
That’s where the rogue and the innocent meet.
Em A
Carried the cold of his hometown’s leaving,
Em A
But wore the heat of the road ‘neath his feet, yeah.

[Verse 2]
Em A
He said he’d come to seek his fortune,
Em A
Just like some old-time pioneer.
Em A
Wanted to wash his cloths in the ocean.
Em A
Shake off the dust of a hundred years.
[Chorus]
C
And though his shoes were wearing through,
Em
And his hat was full of holes.
A
He knows that out there somewhere,
Em A Em A Em A
There’s a diamond, there’s a diamond, there’s a diamond,
Em A Em A Em A Em A Em A
In the coals.
[Verse 3]
Em A
You know he found his own road to salvation.
Em A
And there’s no praying, no pleading, no test.
Em A
And that there’s never been a town not worth leaving,
Em A Em A
Because Heaven doesn’t have an address.
[Verse 4]
Em A
And now he's found his own religion
Em A
And now he’ll follow his very own star.
Em A
Told me his God wore a corduroy jerkin
Em A
And played a beat-up, box guitar.
[Chorus]
C
And though his shoes were wearing through,
Em
And his hat was full of holes.
A
He knows that out there somewhere,
Em A Em A Em A
There’s a diamond, there’s a diamond, there’s a diamond,
Em A
In the coals.
[Bridge]
C Em
He’s on the edge of all he’s looking for.
C Em
'Cos he believes there’s always one more road to explore.
A C D
Like I do, yeah, I do.
Em A Em A Em A
There’s a diamond, there’s a diamond, there’s a diamond,
Em A
There’s a diamond,
Em A Em A
There’s a diamond, in the coals.
Em A Em A
There’s a diamond, in the coals.
[Outro]
Em A
There’s a diamond,
Em A
There’s a diamond,
Em A
There’s a diamond,
Em A
There’s a diamond.
