Cracker Jack Diamond

        A
Well he spent that summer walkin 
door to door
       A
With a can of gas and an old 
lawnmower
         D                E    
that's a sure fine way to make a 
                 A
buck when your 14
        A
Well he walked the block with no 
luck at all
        A
Then he spotted a place where the 
weeds were tall
       D                       
With a young girl sittin on the 
 E                 A
front porch eatin ice cream

F#m
Deep in the pocket of his grass 
stained jeans
         E
Was some carmel corn and a plastic 
ring
D
left over from the week before
                     E
Momma didn't was 'em thank the lord

A           D
Just like a crackerjack diamond
A          D                 E
Never know when you're gonna find 
one
A          D               E
They found love from that day on

A                D
The hand of fate brought them 
together
A                  E            
Their hearts would stay forever

Well it's been five years since he 
gave her his prize
        A
Now the sparkle's gone but not in 
their eyes
              D
And he's been wantin to tell her 
what's been
E           A
on his mind lately

         A
He said girl I ain't rich but I've 
been savin up
   A
A little everyday till I had enough
    D                          E  
And before he could finish she 
                   A
said "You Know I will Baby"

F#m
Deep in the pocket of his holy jeans
         E
Was some money for the picture and a
 diamond ring
D
He took her back to that old front 
porch
E
Slipped it on her finger and he 
thanked the lord

A           D
Just like a crackerjack diamond
A          D                 E
Never know when you're gonna find

A          D               E
They found love from that day on

A                D
The hand of fate brought them 
together
A                  E           
Their hearts would stay forever

Once a year she takes it out but it
