[D]If I had my way tonight

I would surely change your mind
[G]You might be surprised at what you [D]see
[D]I know I don't look the part,

Don't turn it off before it starts
[G]I can hear your heart talkin' to [D]me
[A]I'm not a stone that's been polished and shined

I'm not the diamond that you had in mind

I can't hide it, you get what you see
[D]I've got a lot of rough edges on me
[D]Carnegie or Albert Hall,
[D]You don't need no crystal ball
[G]You know you'll never catch me in that [D]scene
[D]I like my music way up loud, the house is rockin'

When I go out
[G]The midnight hour that's where I want to [D]be
[A]I'm not a stone that's been polished and shined

I'm not the diamond that you had in mind

I can't hide it, you get what you see
[D]I've got a lot of rough edges on me

Solo

[A]I'm not a stone that's been polished and shined

I'm not the diamond that you had in mind

I can't hide it, you get what you see
[D]I've got a lot of rough edges on me
