Verse

E MajorE             A augmentedA
A majorA kiss on the hand may be quite continental
  E MajorE              A augmentedA
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.
E MajorE
A augmentedA kiss may be grand,
   A augmentedA              E MajorE
But it won't pay the rental on your humble flat or help
     A augmentedA
You at the automat
Amaj7Amaj7       EMaj7Emaj7
Men grown cold as girls grow old,
   C# minorC#m            A augmentedA  F#F#
And we all lose our charms in the end.
E MajorE
But square-cut or pear-shape,

These rocks don't lose their shape
E MajorE              A augmentedA
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.
E MajorE              A augmentedA
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.

Let's rock  E MajorE BB A augmentedA BB 4X  E MajorE A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB

E MajorE               A augmentedA
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer
E MajorE              A augmentedA
diamonds are a girl's best friend.
E MajorE                   A augmentedA

There may be a time when a hard boiled employer
          E MajorE
Thinks you're awful nice
      A augmentedA
but get that ice or else no dice.
Amaj7Amaj7       EMaj7Emaj7
He's your guy when stocks are high,
  C# minorC#m            A augmentedA   F#F#
but beware when they start to descend
E MajorE
It's then that those louses go back to their spouses
E MajorE             A augmentedA
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.
E MajorE             A augmentedA
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
