verse 1 
      G 
I was born 

In the calm before the storm 
                     Em 
In the quiet hour of dawn 
                         C 
With the full moon in my eyes 


verse 2 
      G 
I was kissed 

By the rolling river mist 
                          Em 
That betrayed the lovers' tryst 
                C       Em 
A mysterious disguise 

 
           C         G 
Cut like a diamond 
             A      Bm 
Sharper than steel 
             Em 
Sweet as the razor's edge 
  A               C 
Before the jagged wheel 


verse 3 
      G 
I am lost 

I have sold my heart at cost 
                       Em 
On the bridges that we crossed 
                         C 
I have carved my name in stone 


verse 4 
       G 
Bitter wife 

You have cut me like a knife 
                     Em 
I could never take a life 
                          C     Em 
That could never take its own 

 
           C         G 
Cut like a diamond 
             A      Bm 
Sharper than steel 
             Em 
Sweet as the razor's edge 
  A               C 
Before the jagged wheel 

           C         D 
Cut like a diamond 
             E      F#m 
Sharper than steel 
             Em 
Sweet as the razor's edge 
  A               C 
Before the jagged wheel

I was born 

In the calm before the storm

In the quiet hour of dawn

With the full moon in my eyes 


Verse 6 
       A 
I will die 

With the sun high in the sky 
                       F#m 
With the river rolling by 
                        D       F#m 
Far below the Bridge of Sighs

Cut like a diamond

Sharper than steel 
             F#m 
Sweet as the razor's edge 
  B               D       F#m  D  A  Abm 
Before the jagged wheel
