[Chorus]

B            A   
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E                     
change my diamonds to 
B    A   E  B
coal
B            A  
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E           
bring me lower than 
B   A  E  B
low
           B                  A
You said a man might gain the world
    E
and lose his own soul

So go ahead and do it, Lord
E
change my diamonds to 
B    A   E B

[Verse 1]

      B              G#m
I was thinking I had everything
B             G#m      
thinking I was mighty
B           G#m   B           G#m
Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal
    B                 G#m
But lately I've been feelin' all the
B              G#m
ash and dust inside me
B           G#m   B           G#m
Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal
      E
And I can't ignore the savior king
  E
I can't avoid the cross
     F#
I'll need the help his spirit brings
   F#                
To count my gain as loss so


[Chorus]

B            A   
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E                     
change my diamonds to 
B    A   E  B
coal
B            A  
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E           
bring me lower than 
B   A  E  B
low
           B                  A
You said a man might gain the world
    E
and lose his own soul
   B            A
So go ahead and do it, Lord
E
change my diamonds to 
B    A   E B
coal


[Verse 2]

           B            G#m
Thought my money was my worth
      B               G#m
So my wealth was my devotion
B           G#m   B           G#m
Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal
   B                 G#m
My love for treasures on this earth
     B                  G#m
Is a chain that must be broken
B           G#m   B           G#m
Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal
      E 
And I can't ignore the savior king
  E
I can't just walk away
F#
I desire to be redeemed
       F#
That's why I'm here to pray
B            A    
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E           
change my diamonds to 
B    A   E B
coal


[Bridge]

     G#m                     
It’s gonna take a miracle 
   E           B
to turn it all around
F#     B    F#     B
Inside out, upside down
     G#m          
If I desire the sky, Lord 
E           B
give me the ground
F#       B      F#       B
Dead I’m alive, lost I’m found
    C#                       F#
I’m living high (not sure on lyrics) diamonds to
B   A   E 
coal  
B   A   E
B   A   E
B   A   E


[Chorus]

           B                  A
You said a man might gain the world
    E
And lose his own soul
B            A   
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E                     
change my diamonds to 
B    A   E  B
coal
B            A  
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E           
bring me lower than 
B   A  E  B
low
           B                  A
You said a man might gain the world
    E          (hold)
and lose his own soul


[Outro]

B            A   
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E                     
change my diamonds to 
B            A   
Go ahead and do it, Lord
E                     
change my diamonds to
