Notes: This song sounds best on a twelve string...the key change (from G
to A) near the end isn't necessary if you don't feel like playing it that
way...also, this isn't exactly how John Denver does it...I cut out a few
chords at the end of the chorus...a '|' mark indicates a measure
break...enjoy this great song!--Mike

When you ask how I've been here without you
I like to say, "I've been fine," and I do
But we both know the truth is hard to come by
And if I told the truth, that's not quite true
CHORUS: Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
Sometimes the cold wind blows a chill in my bones
D(tacet)

Gsus4 |
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Now the face that I see in the mirror
More and more is a stranger to me
More and more I can see there's a danger
In becoming what I never thought I'd be
CHORUS (then play an 'E' chord after end of chorus and change keys
to 'A':)
3RD CHORUS: Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
Sometimes the cold wind blows a chill in my bones

Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
