Diamond In The Sun

          C                        
I've been trying to keep it down I 
          Am
know this world can be uptight
      F                           C
I get sideways looks everywhere I go
       C                           
But if following my heart is wrong 
  Am
I don't want to be right
          F                        
See I'm a wildfire but all I do is 
C
glow

[Pre-chorus]
                       C        
And in my heart I got a marching 
               Am
band and they
                      F
beating drums singing
                      C
you've been quiet for
                      C
much too long and the
                     Am
tension's rising, I'm 'bout to blow
N.C.
I can't stay in the box you made for
 me no no

[Chorus]
              C                   
Can't hold it in no more, can't bite
Am
 my toungue
          F                        
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that
         C
 must be sung
              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time 
has come
          F                        
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond 
       C
in the sun

N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah
N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah

[Verse 2]
   C                               
So world you best get ready there 
  Am
is no one quiet like me
   F                            
No copies of my soul that I have 
 C
seen
        C                          
And I'm on this earth for something
          Am
 and that something is unique
           F                     
falling in line is not the kind I 
         C
want to be

[Pre-chorus]
                          C        
Cause in my heart I got a marching 
              Am
band and they
                      F
beating drums singing
                      C
you've been quiet for
                      C
much too long and the
                     Am
tension's rising, I'm 'bout to blow
N.C.
I can't stay in the box you made for
 me no no

[Chorus]
              C                   
Can't hold it in no more, can't bite
Am
 my toungue
          F                        
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that
         C
 must be sung
              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time 
has come
          F                        
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond 
       C
in the sun

N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C

Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C

[Bridge]
        C                      
So imma shine, oh imma shine on 
 Am

           F                C     
Wether you like my shine or not, 
             G
at least it's true

[Chorus]
              C                   
Can't hold it in no more, can't bite
Am
 my toungue
          F                        
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that
         C
 must be sung
              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time 
has come
          F                        
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond 
       C
in the sun

              C               
Can't hold it in no more, just 
    Am

          F                        
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that

              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time
