Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend chords by Laura Fygi

C          Fm Fdim C
The French are glad to die for love
      C          Fm    Fdim C
They delight in fighting   duels
   Bm5-/7   E7    Am       Am7+
But  I  prefer a man who lives
A7   D      D7      G9     G
And gives expensive jewels
  C    G       C   Cdim    C    Em7    Cdim   C
A kiss on the hand may be quite continental
     C       Em7   Am7    Cdim   G7
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
   Dm  A7      Dm    A7     Dm7  Cdim     G7
A kiss may be grand, but it won't pay the rental
Cdim    Dm7         G7    Dm7     G7     C
On your humble flat,  or help you at the automat
C    C/B  Am  C7  F      C   F
Men grow cold as girls grow old
G     C   C/B       Am7  Cdim     G
And we all lose our charms in the end
     C      G     Am    Em
But square-cut or pear shaped
        C    G         Bm5-/7  A7
These rocks don't lose their shape
F      Fdim   G/B    G7     C
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
       C    G     C   Cdim    C    Em7    Cdim     C
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer
     C       Em7   Am7    Cdim   G7
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
      Dm  A7      Dm   A7     Dm7 Cdim     G7
There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer
Cdim          Dm7        G7   Dm7      G7      C
Thinks you're awful nice  but get that ice or else, no dice
C    C/B  Am  C7   F      C   F
He's your guy when stocks are high
G      C   C/B       Am7  Cdim    G
But beware when they start to descend
     C      G       Am     Em   C  G        Bm5-/7  A7
It's then that those louses go back to their spouses
F      Fdim   G/B    G7     C
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
     C    G      C   Cdim      C   Em7    Cdim   C
I've heard of affairs that are strictly platonic
     C       Em7   Am7    Cdim   G7
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
   Dm  A7      Dm   A7       Dm7          Cdim     G7
And I think affairs that you must keep liaisonic
    Cdim    Dm7   G7    Dm7     G7      C
Are better bets     if little pets get big baguettes
C    C/B   Am  C7   F   C   F
Time rolls on and youth is gone
G        C    C/B       Am7 Cdim      G
And you can't straighten up when you bend
     C      G      Am    Em        C      G             Bm5-/7   A7
But stiff back or stiff knees, you stand straight at     Tiffany's
F            Fm7          C  E7        Bm5-/7     A
Diamonds     diamonds     I don't mean rhinestones
A9  F       F#7  G       Fdim    G   C  F Fm7  C  G     C
But diamonds       are a girl's best             best friend
