C Am Dm G

[Verse 1]
C
Pressure makes diamonds
    F         C
Not silver or gold
C
It breaks to pieces
    F          G
The hardest of stone
F                                            Am
And it's shines brighter than the stars that you know

F
Pressure makes diamonds
    G         C
And hard work pays off

[Verse 2]
C
Pressure makes diamonds
   F         C
No giant can hold
C
He thought he could carry
     F            G
this world on his own
    F                              Am
But even the strongest can't do it alone

F
Pressure makes diamonds
    G              C
And hard work pays off

[Chorus]
            F
You have to sharpen the edges
F
Smoothen the the surface
F
It'll take you some time
            F              C
'cause it's rough and it's though
            F
Then you'll find what you're looking for
F
Feel like a fallen star
F
Shake off the dirt
       G
Let it shine

C
Pressure makes diamonds
  F          C
A long heavy road
C
First the weight on your shoulders is
F             G
crushing your bones
    F                                        Am
And then it gets darker than the blackest of coal
F
And pressure makes diamonds
   G              C
as hard work pays off

[Chorus]
            F
You have to sharpen the edges
F
Smoothen the the surface
F
It'll take you some time
            F              C
'cause it's rough and it's though
            F
Then you'll find what you're looking for
F
Feel like a fallen star
F
Shake off the dirt
       G
Let it shine

C Am Dm G

[Outro]
C
Pressure makes diamonds
    F         C
Not silver or gold
C
It breaks to pieces
    F          G
The hardest of stone
F                                            Am
And it's shines brighter than the stars that you know
F
Pressure makes diamonds and
G              C
Hard work pays off
F
Pressure makes diamonds and
G7        G    C
Hard work pays off
