Old Chunk Of Coal Teclado

	  (intro) G 

G 
    I'm just an old chunk of coal, 
        B7                                             G7 
but I'm gonna be a diamond some day, 
       C                                                G 
I'm gonna grow and glow 'til I'm so         blue pure perfect, 
                   A                                        D 
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face. 

       G 
But I'm gonna kneel and pray every day, 
       B7                                                G7 
lest I should become vain along the way, 
C                                         G             Em 
    I'm just an old chunk of coal, now, Lord, 
       G                       D                     G 
but I'm gonna be a diamond some day. 

   G 
I'm gonna learn the right way to talk, 
                  B7                                             G7 
I'm gonna search and find a better way to walk, 
        C                                           G 
I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough-edged self, 
       A                                     D 
until I get rid of every single flaw. 

        G 
I'm gonna be the world's best friend, 
                B7                                              G7 
I'm gonna go round shaking everybody's hand, 
        C                                        G                     Em 
I'm gonna be the cotton-pickin'       Rage of the Age, 
        G                       D                     G 
yes, I'm gonna be a diamond some day. 
           C                                          G             Em 
I said,        I'm just an old chunk of coal, now, Lord, 
      G                       D                     G 
but I'm gonna be a diamond some day.
