I'm Just an Old Chunk of Coal
by Stonewall Jackson
C
I'm just an old chunk of coal
E7 Am
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day
F C
I'm gonna grow and glow till I'm so blue pure perfect
D7 G7
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face
C
I'm gonna kneel and pray every day
E7 Am
Lest I should become vain along the way
F C Am
I'm just an old chunk of coal now Lord
G7 C
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day
I'm gonna learn the best way to walk
E7 Am
Gonna search and find a better way to talk
F C
I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough edged self
D7 G7
Till I get rid of every single flaw
C
I'm gonna be the world's best friend
E7 Am
Gonna go round shaking everybody's hand
F C Am
I'm gonna be the cotton pickin' rage of the age
G7 C
I'm gonna be a diamond some day
F C Am
Now I'm just an old chunk of coal now Lord
G7 C
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day
