The French are glad to die for love...
[Verse]
A
A kiss on the hand may be quite continental
E
But diamonds are a girl's best friend

On your humble flats,or help you feed your Pussycat
A D
Men grow cold as girls grow old
A E
And we all lose our charms in the end
A Amaj7
But square-cut or pear-shaped
A7 D
These rocks don't lose their shape
Bm E A
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Bm A Bm A
...Tiffanys ..Cartiers..
A D E F#m
Cause we are li-ving in a material world
D E A
And I am a material girl
A
Ah Come and get me, boys!
A
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer
E
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
Bm
There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer
Thinks you're awful nice
But get that ice or else no dice!
A D
He's your guy when stocks are high
A E
But beware when they start to descend
A Amaj7 A7 D
Cause that's when those louses go back to their spouses.
Bm E
Diamonds are a girl's best
Diamonds are a girl's best
Bm E A
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
