Intro 
A  D  A   A  E  D 
 
Verse 
           A              D            A 
When you asked how I've been here without you 
           F#m            B            E 
I'd like to say I've been fine and I do 
           A              D                 A 
But we both know that the truth is hard to come by 
           F#m            B                 E 
And if I told the truth, that's not quite true 
 
              A          D             A 
Some days are diamonds,  some days are stones 
              F#m        B             E 
Sometimes the hard times,  won't leave me alone 
              A          D             A           F#m 
Sometimes a cold wind,  blows a chill in my bones 
              A          E             D 
Some days are diamonds,  some days are stones 
 
Verse 
          A          D           A 
Now the face that I see in my mirror 
          F#m        B           E 
More and more is a stranger to me 
          A          D           A 
Oh more and more I can see there's a danger 
          F#m        B           E 
In becoming what I never thought I'd be 
 
              A          D             A 
Some days are diamonds,  some days are stones 
              F#m        B             E 
Sometimes the hard times,  won't leave me alone 
              A          D             A           F#m 
Sometimes a cold wind,  blows a chill in my bones 
              A          E             D 
Some days are diamonds,  some days are stones

              A          D             A 
Some days are diamonds,  some days are stones 
              F#m        B             E 
Sometimes the hard times,  won't leave me alone 
              A          D             A           F#m 
Sometimes a cold wind,  blows a chill in my bones 
              A          E             D           A 
Some days are diamonds,  some days are stones
