Bm                           A#                    D

Remember when you were young,   You shone like the sun.

G    G/F#    Em   G/D  A/C#         A      (A#dim7)

Shine on you crazy        diamond.

Bm                              A#                           D

Now there's a look in your eyes,     Like black holes in the sky.

G    G/F#    Em   G/D  A/C#         A

Shine on you crazy        diamond.

         Bm                         Bm/A#

You were caught in the crossfire of childhood and stardom,  

Bm7/A              G#dim7

Blown on the steel breeze.

G                     G#dim7

Come on you target for faraway laughter,

D/A                      F#m/A        F#7/A#       Bm

Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!

     Bm                              A#                    D

You reached for the secret too soon,    You cried for the moon.

G    G/F#    Em    G/D    A/C#         A

Shine on you cra-       -zy  diamond.

Bm                             A#                    D

Threatened by shadows at night,   And exposed in the light.

G    G/F#    Em    G/D   A/C#         A

Shine on you crazy          diamond.

         Bm                          Bm/A#

Well you wore out your welcome, with random precision,  

Bm7/A             G#dim7

Rode on the steel breeze.

G                     G#dim7

Come on you raver, you seer of visions,

D/A                     F#m/A       F#7/A#        Bm

Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner and shine!

Bm                          A#                 D

Nobody knows where you are,    How near or how far.

G    G/F#    Em    G/D    A/C#         A

Shine on you cra-       -zy  diamond.

 Bm                       A#                          D

Pile on many more layers,     And I'll be joining you there.

G    G/F#    Em    G/D    A/C#         A

Shine on you cra-       -zy  diamond.

          Bm                    Bm/A#

And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph, 

Bm7/A             G#dim7

Sail on the steel breeze.

G                         G#dim7

Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,

D/A                  F#m/A         F#7/A#     Bm

Come on you miner for truth and delusion and shine!
