Diamond State Joe Purdy
[E]Take me [F#m]back those summer days
[A]Winter’s making my [B]old bones ache
[E]I’ll ret[F#m]urn when the weather’s changed
[A]I’ll see you in the[B] Diamond State again
[E]Well I g[F#m]ot religion and the old north wind
[A]All the colours cam[B]e, the colours went
[E]I swore [F#m]to get right with my family and friends
[A]Gave my bottle to t[B]he preacher, start over again, singing
[E]Take me [F#m]back those summer days
[A]Winter’s making my [B]old bones ache
[E]I’ll ret[F#m]urn when the weather’s changed
[A]I’ll see you in the[B] Diamond State again
[E]Well hel[F#m]l hath no fury like a woman scorned
[A]She took all the wh[B]iskey and all the corn
[E]She set [F#m]fire to my house, and took off in a storm
[A]Even after she’s go[B]ne she’s still keeping me warm
[E]Take me [F#m]back those summer days
[A]Winter’s making my [B]old bones ache
[E]I’ll ret[F#m]urn when the weather’s changed
[A]I’ll see you in the[B] Diamond State again

[E]Well the[F#m] roof caved in and the house came down
[A]There’s a hole in m[B]y tent, and one in the ground
[E]And the [F#m]places I’ve been ain’t the place I am now
[A]So watch where you’[B]re stepping, I’ll see you around
[E]Take me [F#m]back those summer days
[A]Winter’s making my [B]old bones ache
[E]I’ll ret[F#m]urn when the weather’s changed
[A]I’ll see you in the[B] Diamond State
[E]Oh take [F#m]me back those summer days
[A]This winter’s makin[B]g my old bones ache
[E]And I’ll[F#m] return when the weather’s changed
[A]I will see you in t[B]he Diamond State my friends
[E]I’m goin[F#m]g California, gonna pan for gold
[A]Because a diamond i[B]n the rough ain’t a diamond in the snow
[E]I’m gonn[F#m]a empty all my pockets and admit that I’m old
[A]Take my coat to the[B] corner and hope it gets sold
[E]Take me [F#m]back those summer days
[A]Winter’s making my [B]old bones shake
[E]I’ll ret[F#m]urn when the weather’s changed
[A]I’ll see you in the[B] Diamond State again
