Six Strings And Diamond Rings chords by Taylor Hicks

Intro:
 C           | Em          | D           | C           :

Verse 1:
 G                           G
This town has a long, lonely list
        CM7                              CM7
of good hearts and tortured relationships.
Am                            Am
Guitar women and men like me,
C                                       D
married to the music and the songs they sing.

Verse 2:
G                                  G
Chasing a dream down the interstate,
      CM7                                   CM7
never given a thought to the price I've paid.
Am                               Am
Don't know why, but now I believe
 C                              D
goodbye was invented in Tennessee.

Chorus 1:
 C                                     Em
The highway ain't home for nothing, but a heartache,
 D                           C
it just gets lonely and it still takes, everything and more.
C**            D*      Em
Love is just a song we   sing,
 C**                 D*      G        G
'cause six strings are hard on diamond   rings.

Verse 3:
 G                                G
Sometimes I dream of a picket fence,
         CM7                                          CM7
a fridge covered with pictures and a yard full of kids.
 Am                                        Am
A woman who meant it, when she said, "I do",
C                               D
then I wake up in a hotel room.

Chorus 2:
 C                                     Em
The highway ain't home for nothing, but a heartache,
 D                           C
it just gets lonely and it still takes, everything and more.
 C                                     Em
In my life now, a flame gets started but it burns out
 D                               C
and the lights of the night of a new crowd, it's what I'm living
for.
C**            D*     Em
Love is just a song I   sing
 C**                     D*      G
'cause six strings are hard on diamond   rings.
 C**                      D**    Em
Yeah, love ain't nothing but a song I   sing
 C**                     D*           G*
'cause six strings are hard on diamond      rings.
