Lyrics

Dia monds are for ev er.

They are all I need to please me.

They can sti mu late and tease me.

They won’t (Em7)leave in the (G)night.

I’ve no (Cmaj9)fear that they might de sert me.

(Bm)Dia monds are for ev er.

Hold one (Em7)up and then ca ress it.

Touch it, (A7)stroke it and un dress it.

I can (Em7)see ev ’ry (G)part, noth ing (Cmaj9)hides in the heart to hurt me.

I don’t need (F#m7)love,

for what good will love (Bm7)do me?

Dia monds nev er lie (Cmaj7)to me.

For when love’s (F#7)gone

they lus tre (A#dim7)on.

(Bm)Dia monds are for ev er.

Spark ling (Em7)’round my lit tle fin ger.

Un like (A7)men, the dia monds ling er.

Men are (Em7)mere mor tals (G)who are not (Cmaj9)worth go ing to your grave for.

I don’t need (F#m7)love,

for what good will love (Bm7)do me?

Dia monds nev er lie (Cmaj7)to me.

For when love’s (F#7)gone

they lus tre (A#dim7)on.

(Bm)Dia monds are for ev er, for ev er, for ev er.

(Em)Dia monds are for ev er, for ev er, for ev er.

For (Cmaj7)ev

er

and (Bm)ev er.
