          E                                                           A
I've been up and down this highway and I don't have a single thing to show
             E                                                       A
Except these words that I'm singing, I found them by the side of the road
    B7                                             E
Somewhere in Amarillo I think somebody left them behind
     B7                                                      E
Well finders are keepers and I'll take all the keepers I can find


Chorus:
A
Words are like diamonds
    A                            E 
The best ones are the hardest to find
B7
Buried in the bottom of the coal
B7              E
Just waiting to shine


When I got home this evening I was worried about things she might say
See I've left her alone lately driving on to another place to play
But she just whispered in my ear exactly what I needed to hear tonight
So let tomorrow be tomorrow because I know everything's gonna be alright

Chorus

I've got friends and I've got heroes and you know I love them all just the same
But I don't think I've ever told them all the things I need to say
Maybe one day I'll know the words that I'm trying to find
But for now I'll keep on searching, digging deeper down this old coal mine

Chorus
