Blue October – Coal Makes Diamonds Chords

GIf I'm a desert,
DMy face is the wind
EmI know where I'm going
CAnd I know where I've been
GYou're the horizon aDnd the wide open space
EmAnd I surround you caressing Cyour face
GThere's not a limit to the things that I'd do
DI'd give you stars but the stars wouldn't do
EmYou're like the lava burning buried below
CAn eruption but too early to show
GWe are islands
DHear our sirens
EmAnd so we wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
CWe wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
G'Cause when pressure heightens
DOur coal makes diamonds
EmAnd so we wait... (wait, down, in front of me)
CWe wait... (wait, down, wait, down)
GThe flood comes shifting the soil
DOur blood runs thicker than oil
EmIt's like erosion cutting straight to the core
CNo human nature ever felt this before
GAnd we become an unbreakable vow
DI wanna hold you up, higher than most
EmBecause it feels like flying Cout
GWe are islands
DHear our sirens
EmAnd so we wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
CWe wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
G'Cause when pressure heightens
DOur coal makes diamonds
EmAnd so we wait... (wait, down, in front of me)
CWe wait... (wait, down, wait, down)
(Wait, down, in front of me)
GWe are islands
DHear our sirens
EmAnd so we wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
CWe wait... (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
G'Cause when pressure heightens
DOur coal makes diamonds
EmAnd so we wait... (wait, down, in front of me)
CWe wait... (wait, down, wait, down)
Wait, down, in front of me.
Wait, down.
