Some days are diamonds
Em
Some days are rocks

Some doors are open
D
Some roads are blocked

Sundowns are golden

Then fade away
C
If I never do nothing
D
I'll get you back some day
 
[Chorus]
                C        G
Cause you got a heart so big
         C          G
It could crush this town
            Am       Em
And I can't hold out forever
     D          G
Even walls fall down
 
[Verse]
G
And all around your island
Em
There's a barricade
C
It keeps out the danger
D
It holds in the pain
 
[Verse]
G
Sometimes you're happy
Em
Sometimes you cry
C
Half of me is ocean
D
Half of me is sky
 
[Chorus]
                C        G
Cause you got a heart so big
         C          G
It could crush this town
            Am       Em
And I can't hold out forever
     D          G
Even walls fall down
 
[Break]
G  Em  C  D
 
[Verse]

And some things are over
Em
Some things go on
C
And part of me you carry
D
Part of me is gone
 
[Chorus]
                C        G
Cause you got a heart so big
         C          G
It could crush this town
            Am       Em
And I can't hold out forever
     D          G
Even walls fall down
 
[Chorus]
                C        G
Cause you got a heart so big
         C          G
It could crush this town
            Am       Em
And I can't hold out forever
     D          G
Even walls fall down

Thank you so much for this! I love this cover. Could someone help me with the strumming pattern used? I can't quite get the rhythm.
