diamond in the dark
words & music by chris de burgh

D F#m/C# G
is it real , what i feel , __ is it love ,
C/G G D F#m/C#
is it love that’s making me weak , in the night ,
Em
and when she’s next to me ,
Asus A G
i just stumble on my words ,
Asus A F#m
and all the things i want to say ,
Bm
come out wrong ,
A G
i Am lost in a dream ,
Asus
but i know this is more than it seems ,
A
i need a little help;

D G
someone put on a love song ,
A F#7/A# Bm
to bring her closer to me ,
A G D/A
all i want is this diamond in the dark ,
A D
to begin what must be;

when she turns at her name , when she smiles ,
when she smiles , i feel it again , in my heart ,
across the crowded room ,
she is just a dance away ,
and i can feel her like a fire that’s burning strong ,
she keeps looking at me ,
and i know this was all meant to be ,
and then it had to come;

someone put on a love song ,
to bring her closer to me ,
all i want is this diamond in the dark ,
to begin what must be ,
all i want is this diamond in the dark ,
to begin what must be ,
all i want is this diamond in the dark , to begin what must be ,
A G D/A A D D G D G D G D A D
all i want is this diamond in the dark , to begin what must be .
