[Verse 1]
      G
I was born

In the calm before the storm
                     Em
In the quiet hour of dawn
                         C
With the full moon in my eyes


[Verse 2]
      G
I was kissed

By the rolling river mist
                          Em
That betrayed the lovers' tryst
                C       Em
A mysterious disguise


[Chorus]
           C         G
Cut like a diamond
             A      Bm
Sharper than steel
             Em
Sweet as the razor's edge
  A               C
Before the jagged wheel


[Verse 3]
      G
I am lost

I have sold my heart at cost
                       Em
On the bridges that we crossed
                         C
I have carved my name in stone


[Verse 4]
       G
Bitter wife

You have cut me like a knife
                     Em
I could never take a life
                          C     Em
That could never take its own


[Chorus]
           C         G
Cut like a diamond
             A      Bm
Sharper than steel
             Em
Sweet as the razor's edge
  A               C
Before the jagged wheel


[Chorus]
           C         D
Cut like a diamond
             E      F#m
Sharper than steel
             Em
Sweet as the razor's edge
  A               C
Before the jagged wheel

[Verse 5]
      A
I was born

In the calm before the storm
                     F#m
In the quiet hour of dawn
                         D
With the full moon in my eyes


[Verse 6]
       A
I will die

With the sun high in the sky
                       F#m
With the river rolling by
                        D       F#m
Far below the Bridge of Sighs


[Chorus]
           D         E
Cut like a diamond

Sharper than steel

Sweet as the razor's edge
  B               D       F#m  D  A  Abm
Before the jagged wheel
