Diamond In The Rough

F  G  Am

F                           G
You've heard the way people talk about me,
       C        G/B         Am
Do you like the things they say,
          F             G             Am
Or do you find it disconcerting and unkind,
F                           G
It's a joke I've learned to live with,
      Em                 A
Being different from the crowd,
               F
They'd like to polish me up,
G               F                 G
Give me a trim, water me down and make me be like them.

          A* Am      A*  Am
But I'm a diamond in the rough,
  A* Am      A*  Am
A diamond in the rough,

Taking my time,

Deciding when to shine,
Em

A diamond in the rough.

F                          G
I had hoped that you would love me,
              C       G/B       Am
Since I could fall in love with you,
         F                      G                 Am
Could we find our place in each other somewhere tonight,
Am
Oh, I hope so,
           F                G
Or has the talk decayed the beauty,
        Em            A
That we once began to find,
                  F            G
Would you like to polish me up,
G               F              G
Give me a trim, water me down, make me be like them.

Deciding when to shine,
