Diamonds Girls Best Friend Chords & Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

[VERSE]
[E] [B] [A] [B] 4X

[E]A kiss on the hand may be [A]quite continental
But[E] diamonds are a girl's best f[A]riend.
[E]A kiss may be grand,
But it[A] won't pay the rental on your[E] humble flat or help
You at the[A] automat
[Amaj7]Men grown cold as [Emaj7]girls grow old,
And we[C#m] all lose our charms in the[A] end.[F#]
[E]But square-cut or pear-shape,

These rocks don't lose their shape
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best f[A]riend.
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend.

Let's rock [E] [B] [A] [B] 4X [E] [A] [B] [E] [A] [B]

[E]There may come a time when a l[A]ass needs a lawyer
[E]diamonds are a girl's best f[A]riend.
[E] [A]

There may be a time when a hard boiled employer
Thinks you're awful[E] nice
but get that[A] ice or else no dice.
[Amaj7]He's your guy when [Emaj7]stocks are high,
but[C#m] beware when they start to[A] desce[F#]nd
[E]It's then that those louses go back to their spouses
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend.
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend

Let rock again [E] B A [B] 4X [E] [A] [B] [E] [A] [B]

[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend.
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend
[E]Diamonds are a girl's best [A]friend
