Verse 1
[C]I gave you a band of silver
There was no diamond r[F]ing
Said: "Baby where we're going
got no use for such th[C]ings"
You will find all the gems
that you could want right h[F]ere
On the interstates and highways
80,000 miles a y[C]ear.
CHORUS
[C]There are diamonds in the asphalt
Ain't that what they s[G]ay
Ain't that why the blacktop
Glitters in that w[C]ay
There's many a fool's follow it
to the ends of their d[F]ays
It's not their fa[G]ult
Blame it on false promises
And the diamonds in the asp[C]halt
Verse 2
[C]You were always searchin'
for some treasure you don't fi[F]nd
I have followed you this far
But, I don't m[C]ind
May - be - sometimes
we must carry a heavy lo[F]ad
we get richer with every mile
that we drive along this r[C]oad (CHORUS)
(SOLO) - same chords as Chorus
Verse 3
[C]We have come so far
Still we have so far to g[F]o
I hope to God, that someone
Will be coming to this s[C]how
And the babies are cryin'
And I feel like cryin' t[F]oo
But it's too late to turn back now
Even if we wanted t[C]oo (CHORUS)
OUTTRO
[G]Yeah blame it on false promises
and the diamonds in the asp[C]halt
