Gm
Remember when you were young,
F#                 Bb
You shone like the sun.
Eb   Dm   Cm   Bb    F
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Gm
Now there's a look in your eyes,
F#                      Bb
Like black holes in the sky.
Eb   Dm   Cm  Bb    F
Shine on you crazy diamond.

         Gm*
You were caught in the crossfire
   Gm/F#
Of childhood and stardom,
Gm/F               C9
Blown on the steel breeze.
Eb                     Edim
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
Bb                     Dm          D          Gm
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine

Solo: Gm | F# | Bb | Eb | Dm | Cm | Bb | F

    Gm
You reached for the secret too soon,
F#                Bb
You cried for the moon.
Eb   Dm    Cm  Bb  F
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Gm
Threatened by shadows at night,
F#                 Bb
And exposed in the light.
Eb   Dm   Cm  Bb  F
Shine on you crazy diamond.

         Gm*
Well you wore out your welcome
    Gm/F#
With random precision,
Gm/F              C9
Rode on the steel breeze.
Eb                     Edim
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
Bb                     Dm         D           Gm
Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner and shine
