[Verse 1]
G                      D            Em
When you ask how I've been here without you
           C                            G
I like to say, "I've been fine," and I do
        C                              G
But we both know the truth is hard to come by
      Em            C                       D
And if I told the truth, that's not quite true
[Chorus]
               G       C                 G
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
              Em            A             D
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
               G       C                     G    Em
Sometimes the cold wind blows a chill in my bones
               G      D                     G  Gsus4 
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
[Verse 2]
G                    D            Em
Now the face that I see in the mirror
          C                     G
More and more is a stranger to me
          C                        G
More and more I can see there's a danger
      Em            C                D
In becoming what I never thought I'd be
[Chorus] 
               G       C                 G
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
              Em          A                D    
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
               G       C                     G    Em
Sometimes the cold wind blows a chill in my bones
               G      D                     G  Gsus4  E
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
(change key to 'A')
[Outro]
               A       D                A
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
              C#m                         D    E
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
               A       D                      A    F#m
Sometimes the cold wind blows a chill in my bones
               A      E(tacet)             A  Asus4  A 
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
