G D Em C
G D C C
[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

Em C
Back to the wildness you had as a child
G D

G D
Everything hidden
C

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
Em D C
Em D C
Em D C Bm C
[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
