(Capo at 1st fret)

D

Diamonds, roses,

A

I need Moses to cross this sea of lonliness,

G D

Part this red river of pain.

I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness,

A G D

But I need a little place in the sun sometimes or I think I will die.

A G D

And everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near,

A G D

Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer.

A G D

So, I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here,

A G

With an empty apartment and a best friend who is a queer.

D

Everytime I see him he smiles and he tells me how well he's walking these miles,

A

But I he never ever asks a single thing about me,

G

If I die, he'd hear about it eventually.

D

Diamonds, roses,

A

I need Moses to cross this sea of lonliness,

G D

Part this red river of pain.

A G D

And everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near,

A G D

Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer.

A G D

So, I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here,

A G

Go home to an empty apartment and call a best friend who is a queer.

D

Diamonds, roses,

A

I need Moses to cross this sea of lonliness,

G D

Part this red river of pain.

A

to cross this sea of lonliness,

G D

Part this red river of pain.

A

to cross this sea of lonliness,

G D

Part this red river of pain.
