  			F                        
Some days are diamonds    
Dm 
Some days are rocks 
Bb                    
Some doors are open   
C 
Some roads are blocked 
F 
Sundowns are golden 
Dm 
Then fade away 
Bb 
If I never do nothing 
C 
I get you back some day 

 
                 Bb       F                     
'Cause you got a heart so big;  
         Bb         C 
It could crush this town 
            Gm         Dm           
And I can't hold out forever 
     C          F 
Even walls fall down 
 
F 
And all around your island  
Dm 
There a barricade 
Bb 
It keeps out the danger  
C 
It holds in the pain 
F 
Sometimes you're happy  
Dm 
Sometimes you cry 
Bb 
Half of me is ocean  
C 
Half of me is sky 

 
                 Bb       F                     
'Cause you got a heart so big;  
         Bb         C 
It could crush this town 
            Gm         Dm           
And I can't hold out forever 
     C          F 
Even walls fall down  

F 
And some things are over 
Dm 
Some things go on 
Bb 
And part of me you carry  
C 
Part of me is gone

 
                 Bb       F                     
'Cause you got a heart so big;  
         Bb         C 
It could crush this town 
            Gm         Dm           
And I can't hold out forever 
     C          F 
Even walls fall down 
 
 
                 Bb       F                     
'Cause you got a heart so big;  
         Bb         C 
It could crush this town 
            Gm         Dm           
And I can't hold out forever 
     C          F 
Even walls fall down
