🎶 Diamonds Are a Girls Best Friend

The [Db]French are glad to die for love they delight in fighting duels
But [A#]I prefer a man who [D#]lives And [A#]gives ex [Cb]pensive jewels
A [Db]kiss on the hand may be quite continental but [Cb]diamonds are a girl's best [Db]friend

A [A#]kiss may be [Cb]grand [A#]But it won't pay the rental
On your [B7]humble flat [D#]Or [Bb]help you at the [Cb]automat
[Db]Men grow cold As [Bb]girls grow old
And we [D#]all lose our charms in the [Cb]end
But [Db]square-cut or pear-shaped These [A#m]rocks don't loose their shape
[Bb]Diamonds are a [Cb]girl's best [Db]friend

[Db]Tiffany's Cartier Black Starr Frost Gorham
[Db]Talk to me Harry Winston Tell me all about it [Bb] [Cb]

There [Db]may come a time When a lass needs a lawyer
[Bb]Diamonds are a [Cb]girl's best [Db]friend

There [Bb]may come a time When a [D#]hard-boiled employer
Thinks you're awful nice But [Bb]get that ice or [Cb]else no dice
[Db]He's your guy When [A#]stocks are high
But be[Db]ware when they [D#]start to des[Bb]cend [Cb]
It's [Db]then that those louses Go [B7]back to their [D#]spouses
[Bb]Diamonds are a [Cb]girl's best [Db]friend
I've [Db]heard of affairs That are [B7]strictly pla[D#]tonic
[Bb]Diamonds are a [Cb]girl's best [Db]friend

And [Db]I think affairs That you [B7]must keep liai[D#]sonic
Are [Bb]better bets If [Cb]little pets get big baguettes
[Db]Time rolls on [A#]And youth is gone
And you [Bb]can't straighten [Cb]up when you [Db]bend

[Db]But stiff back Or stiff knees You [B7]stand straight [D#]at Tiffany's
[A#]Diamonds [Db]Diamonds [D#]I don't mean rhinestones
But [Bb]diamonds are a girl's [Cb]best Best [Db]friend⠀
