Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I've searched the world
[G]over [C]all of my life
Just [F]looking for something
To make my love [C]shine
Like a candle that burns in the night
But I [F]came up with nothing
'Til I looked in your [G]eyes
[F]Deeper and deeper in[G]side

[Verse 2]
[C]And all of the t[G]reasures
I [F]found in your soul
Was like [Am]finding [F]a diamond
When you're mining for [C]coal[G][F]

[Verse 3]
Well, [C]I've been a fool for glitter and gold
And [F]women that sparkle, shiny and [C]cold
Like a statue carved out of ice
They [F]shimmer like tinsel
On a blue [G]Christ[Am]mas [G]night
But they [F]never were quite so [G]bright

[Verse 4]
[C]As all of the [G]treasures that
[F]loving you holds
It's like [Am]finding [F]a diamond
When you're mining [C]for coal
[Am]Well,

[Verse 5]
[G]I was a miner
And [F]you were a rock in the [C]dust
But [D]you became flawless
When you were you polished by [G]love

[Verse 6]
[G]And [C]when I [G]found you
I [F]lost all [C]control[F]
I [Am]found me [F]a diamond
Just mining for [C]coal[G]

[Verse 7]
And [C]when I [G]found you
I [F]lost all control
I [Am]found me [F]a diamond
Just mining for [C]coal[G]
[F]
