Old Faded Diamond

By Jamey Johnson 4/3/2010 CFCF C C/B Am Am/G The stone and the ring on your finger F G C Dont shine quite the way its once did C C/B Am Am/G That old sparkling cluster has lost all its luster D G And it shows all the flaws it once hid F G And I knew when I bought it, that it wasnt perfect C C/B Am Am/G And that gave it some character then Dm F G But I find myself wishin' it was shiney and new once again chorus F G C Am What do you do with an old faded diamond F G C Am That just doesnt sparkle the way it once did F G C Am G Is it worth all the hassle to polish the tarnish away F G C Am What do you do with an old faded diamond F G Am When time hasnt been a good friend F G C Can a three quarter karat be something to stare at again At one time our love flowed so easy But these days it dont show at all When we get together, its just like we never Cared for each other at all When you took off your ring and said it dont mean a thing I know its the shape it was in And I'd like to repair it but I just dont know where to begin Chorus
