Intro
B x4
[Verse]
B E F#
Diamonds, don't come and get to me,
B
Layin' there, in the sand,
B E F#
I'd forgotten how much it means to me,
B
You sit there, holdin' my hand,
B
I don't like your lonesome ways
E
They're pushin' me deathbound,
F#
Maybe I see the day
B
Or maybe just the sound
[Chorus]
B
Forgive me for innocence lost
E
I can't stand baby that I've sinned,
B
Relive me and the time spent
E
I never looked to end but to begin,
G#m
Forgive me my vision's bent
E
I only thought my chances were slim
B x2
[Verse]
B
Diamonds,
E F#
Don't come and get to me,
B
Sittin' at the window, countin' your dough,
B E F#
I remember how little you called on me,
B
When you found someone to call your own,
B
I don't like your lonesome ways
E
They're pushin' me deathbound
F# B
Maybe I see the day, or maybe just the sound
[Chorus]
B
Forgive me for innocence lost
E
I can't stand baby that I've sinned,
B
Relive me and that time spent
E
I never looked to end but to begin,
G#m
Forgive me my vision's bent
E
I only thought my chances were slim
