[Verse 1]
G                        D
Desperate to say that it is when it isn't
Em                   C
Lost in the ocean of your optimism
G             D
In a sea of denial
            C
You are an island
    G                        D
You know if I could, I would swim out that far
Em                    C
Carry you home to who you really are
G            D         C
Relight your fire, but I can't


[Chorus]
C          D                        G
Mining for diamonds, you dig in the dirt
D/F#  Em  C
Ooh, ooh, ooh
            D                    G
Down in the darkness, it's gonna hurt
D/F#      B7         Em                    D                     Cadd9        G/B
Ooh, it's what every searching soul in the great unknown must be brave and do
Am7                D
You will find your deepest you


[Verse 2]
G                     D
I see your pain and I travel in time
Em                       C
Back to the wildness you had as a child
G                    D
Dancing and laughter
C
Free
    G                           D
The whole world back then as it lay at your feet
    Em                        C
Now it's on your back and you struggle to keep
G                  D
Everything hidden
    C
But I see


[Chorus]
C          D                        G
Mining for diamonds, you dig in the dirt
D/F#  Em  C
Ooh, ooh, ooh
            D                    G
Down in the darkness, it's gonna hurt
D/F#      B7         Em                    D                     Cadd9        G/B
Ooh, it's what every searching soul in the great unknown must be brave and do
Am7                D
You will find your deepest you

[Outro]
G                      D
Desperate to say I can make it alright
Em                                C
Knock down the walls your heart's hiding behind
G            D     C
I could never, but you can
