[Intro] D

[First Part]

     D
When I was just a kid
                     Dsus2  G
I couldn't wait till I grow up
      D
Tried walking in your shoes
                    Dsus2    G
But I couldn't even tie them up
              Bm       G      D
No matter how big and tall I grow
             Bm            G
I was always looking up to you

[Chorus]

                 Bm            G              D         A
You show me that I was just a 'diamond in the rough'
                 Bm            G                D         A
You helped me to grow into the man that I've become
           Bm               G
We've been down, we've been up
          D                A
I hope I made you proud enough
    A#°        Bm          G
You make it look easy, even when I'm hard to love

( D  A  G  D/F# )
( D  A  G  D/F# )

[Segunda Parte]

     D
When I dropped out of school
                    Dsus2    G
You told me that my time was up
           D
I was a rebel with a cause
                       Dsus2   G
Just didn't quite know what it was
           Bm       G     D
So I got a job that barely paid
                     Bm               G
You said you did the same thing at my age

[Chorus]

                 Bm            G              D         A
You show me that I was just a 'diamond in the rough'
                 Bm            G                D         A
You helped me to grow into the man that I've become
           Bm               G
We've been down, we've been up
          D                A
I hope I made you proud enough
    A#°        Bm          G
You make it look easy, even when I'm hard to love

           Bm               G
We've been down, we've been up
          D                A
I hope I made you proud enough
    A#°        Bm          G
You make it look easy, even when I'm hard to love
