Rough Gem  Islands



[F#]The world beat you for [Ebm]something nice
[C#]You worked hard, [B]died poor
[F#]You mined what you[Ebm] died for
[C#]Diamonds [F#]di di [B]di di [C#]di uh
[F#]You can whistle my [Ebm]name
[B]It's the mines, in Africa
[C#]That are to blame
[F#]You can Scoop out my brain
[Ebm]Shape it into an ear and then[B] tell me yo[C#]ur pain
F#/C#/B/!CLAP!CLAP!/B

[F#]I've been awake from the [Ebm]first day
[B]Stayed awake, [C#]stayed awake
[F#]The rabbit linked up to t[Ebm]he whole moon
[B]Longer, [C#]short road

Pre Breakdown: (in arpeggios) F#/B/Ebm/C#

[F#/C#/G#m/B]                                     
instrumental: F#/B/Ebm/C#

[F#]Dig deep but don't dig too deep
[C#]When it's late you'll see the hole is [G#m]empty and oh so [B]deadly
[F#]They want me raw and smooth like g[C#]lass
They want it fast but they don't want [G#m]flaws

I'm a girl's best friend
[B]Can you cut, I can cut, 'cause I'm a rough gem

[F#/C#/G#m/B]                                     
[F#]who lives in those [B]lights in the distance?
[Ebm]why didntyou tell me the rain [C#]would help you out
[F#]I had a dream, [B]it was all a dream
[Ebm]But it was ruined by the s[C#]un shining in through[F#] me
