D


🎸 Verse 1:
D               Bm           G              E
I know you're a woman by the way you burn below
D             Bm                      G            E
I'll tell you secrets so good, you'll never tell a soul
D            Bm          G                   E
Come closer, my bonfire, holds his life like stones
D     Bm            G
My years, my life unknown

🎸 Verse 2:
D                 Bm                 G                E
Diamonds from the pavement where the broken glass had been
D               Bm                G              E
Just like these troubles that I'm leaving to the wind
D              Bm         G                    E
Like sapphires in boxcars speeding towards the end
D         Bm              G  E
Like thieves, my bad luck grows


🎸 Chorus:
G                     E
Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear
A                     D
Crystallize illusions shine forgotten here
G                     E
Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear
    A               F         D       G  D
Oh, you left some stars in my belly


🎸 Verse 3:
D                    Bm          G               E
Star-crossed child's love on the band of wedding gold
D               Bm                  G                  E
Silver studs of promise hide in the red crushed velvet folds
D         Bm              G          E
Inaction, intention, like emeralds I stole
D      Bm           G     E
My speech of costume gold
D     Bm         G   E
I think I ought to know


🎸 Chorus:
G                     E
Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear
A                     D
Crystallize illusions shine forgotten here
G                     E
Jewel box of sadness, ring to catch your tear
    A               C#  A  D       G
Oh, you left some stars in my belly
A                         D
You left some stars in my belly
A                         D
You left some stars in my belly
