The New Basement Tapes é o nome dado ao grupo montado por T-Bone Burnett para mostrar letras descartadas e descobertas de 1967 de Bob Dylan em música e gravação. Em cima da descoberta deles no outono de 2013, o editor de Bob se aproximou de T-Bone com o trabalho de transformar os manuscritos em canções, e ele concordou sobre montar um elenco de almas complacentes para colocar palavras à música. Ele contratou seu parceiro do Coward Brothers Elvis Costello

*Let me just say that this isn't going to be 100% accurate - I came as close as I could with the correct chord shapes and picking pattern until I was satisfied with the result. These will not be the correct chord names on some occasions. If you have any changes that you'd suggest others play leave them in the comments.
Taylor Goldsmith is leaving behind a legacy of beautifully crafted guitar pieces that I'm honored to even listen too let alone play. This is another such piece...

Open with E bass notes (Verse:)
EE2 If I ever get back to St. Louis again E3Bm7A There's gonna be some changes made C#mG#m I'm gonna find old Alice and right where I left off ABE It's gonna be just as if I stayed
EE2 That old organ grinder's gonna wind his box E3Bm7A And the knife sharpener's gonna sing C#mG#m When I get back to St. Louis again ABE I'm gonna buy that diamond ring
(Chorus:)
A Diamond ring E1 Diamond ring G# Shine like gold C#mAD Behold that diamond ring
If I ever get back to St. Louis again Everybody's gonna smile One of the Mack girls dragged me up to Washington I got stuck there for a while
She gave me more misery than a man can hold And I took her bad advice Now I don't aim to bother anyone I have paid that awful price
Diamond ring Diamond ring Shine like gold Behold that diamond ring
If ever I get back to St. Louis again That diamond ring is gonna shine That old burlesque dancer is gonna bum around And everything's gonna be fine
I'm gonna settle up my accounts with lead And leave the rest up to the law Then I'm gonna marry the one I love And head out for Wichita
Diamond ring Diamond ring Shine like gold Behold that diamond ring
