Diamonds in the Asphalt - Truckstop Honeymoon
Tabbed by Danny Halstead
Email: dhalstead@pacifichydro.com.au

Verse 1
C
I gave you a band of silver
                      F
There was no diamond ring

Said: "Baby where we're going
                      C
got no use for such things"

You will find all the gems
                           F
that you could want right here

On the interstates and highways
                C
80,000 miles a year.

CHORUS
C
There are diamonds in the asphalt
                      G
Ain't that what they say

Ain't that why the blacktop
                  C
Glitters in that way

There's many a fool's follow it
                      F
to the ends of their days
                 G
It's not their fault

Blame it on false promises
                           C
And the diamonds in the asphalt

Verse 2
C
You were always searchin'
                              F
for some treasure you don't find

I have followed you this far
              C
But, I don't mind

May - be - sometimes
                        F
we must carry a heavy load

we get richer with every mile
                          C
that we drive along this road  [CHORUS]

[SOLO] - same chords as Chorus

Verse 3
C
We have come so far
                         F
Still we have so far to go

I hope to God, that someone
                        C
Will be coming to this show

And the babies are cryin'
                        F
And I feel like cryin' too

But it's too late to turn back now
                   C
Even if we wanted too [CHORUS]

OUTTRO
G 
Yeah blame it on false promises
                           C
and the diamonds in the asphalt
