    6      -5      5    -4     5
Some days are diamonds
   6       -5     5     4
Some days are rocks
 6      -5      5    -4     5
Some doors are open
   6       -5     5     -4
Some roads are blocked
 
    6      -5      5    -4     5
Sundowns are golden
   6       -5     5     4
Then fade away
 4   6 6  -5 -5  5   -4    5
But if I never do nothing
 6   6    6     -5      5       -4
I'll get you back some day
 
   4        5     -4  4    4    5  -4   4
'Cause you got a heart so big
4    4        4      5     5
It could crush this town
  5   -4  5     5     -4   4  -4  4
And I can't hold out forever
  5  5   -4      4     4 
Even walls fall down
 
  4     6    -5       5    -4   5
And all round' your island
      6     6   -5  5  -4
There's a barricade
4    6      -5    5    -4   5
It keeps out the danger
4    6   -5    5    4
It holds in the pain
 
    6      -5      5    -4     5
Sometimes you're happy
   6       -5     5     -4
Sometimes you cry
  6    6  -5  5   -4    5
Half of me is ocean
 6      6 -5   5   -4
Half of me is sky
 
 4    5 -4  4    4   5  -4   4
But you got a heart so big
 4    4     4   5     5
It could crush this town
  5   -4  5     5     -4   4  -4  4
And I can't hold out forever
  5  5   -4      4     4 
Even walls fall down
 
 4    6   -5     5  -4  5
And some things are over
 6     -5   5  -4
Some things go on
 4   6   6  -5  5  -4  5
And part of me you carry
 6   6  -5  5  -4
Part of me is gone
 
 4    5 -4  4    4   5  -4   4
But you got a heart so big
 4    4     4   5     5
It could crush this town
  5   -4  5     5     -4   4  -4  4
And I can't hold out forever
  5  5   -4      4     4 
Even walls fall down
 
4 4    5 -4  4    4   5  -4   4
Baby you got a heart so big
 4    4     4   5     5
It could crush this town
  5   -4  5     5     -4   4  -4  4
And I can't hold out forever
  5  5   -4      4     4 
Even walls fall down
