Diamond In My Pocket chords by Cody Johnson

Guitar chords with lyrics

Version 3

Fairly easy song.  The hammer on that is heard in the beginning is the bottom F# to a G in the G chord from
what I can hear.  Same with the C chord except it is a B to C.  This is my first tab so I know it will not
be perfect.  The chords in the intro and outro are displayed by measures.  So G for 4 counts, then C.

Key of G - Key change to A

No Capo

Intro: G  C  G  C

Verse 1:

G
Saturday night and the moon is out just shinin' over top of the pines
G
🎸

I'm headin' on down to my baby's house gonna take her on a moonlight ride
                 Em                C                  G
Now I'm on these backroads winding up out of Kickapoo Creek
Em                          C                  D
Dancin' and singin' to some good ol' boys like me

Chorus:
               C   D    G
Baby there's a shooting star
             C  D   G
That was for me and you
   Em             C                   G               D
So hold me tight, make that wish, and pray that comes true
        C    D  G
I ain't sure of much,
    Em   D C
But this I know...
           G                           D                     C
I've got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold.

Verse 2:

G
I brought along a little courage and a Coleman cooler, just to help me out
G
My hands are shaking like a Cambridge rattler, nothin's gonna save me now
         Em                  C                 G
Might as jump in head first, lay it all on the line
          Em                         C                 D
What am I worryin' bout? Never gonna be a more perfect time

-Repeat chorus-

               C   D    G
Baby there's a shooting star
             C  D   G
That was for me and you
   Em             C                   G               D
So hold me tight, make that wish, and pray that comes true
        C    D  G
I ain't sure of much,
    Em   D C
But this I know...
           G                           D                     C
I've got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold.

-Instrumental Interlude-

Bridge:

       C                       G
Well I didn't have money for a Broadway show,
        C                           G
But the crickets are singin' to the radio
              C                          D D D7
and we've got tickets, on the very front row


-Key Change to A-

               D   E    A
Baby there's a shooting star
             D  E   A
That was for me and you
   F#m            A                   D                  E
So hold me tight, make that wish, and pray that it comes true
        D    A  E
I ain't sure of much,
    F#m  E D
but this I know...
        D                           E                     A
I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold
        D                           E                     A
I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold
