"Diamonds" by Christopher Jak
Chords by Peter Codington
Note: Throughout the song, wherever I have placed an "Em7",
a "G" will suffice to make it more simple.
Intro (and end instrumental): Am F C Em7 Am F C G C
Am F
Buy me a new pair of diamonds she said
C Em7
Some that will sparkle long after I'm dead
Am F C G C
Let me be remembered not for what I've said, for what I've carried around
Am
Buy me a watch now
F C Em7
Not just any kind, one that will make up for all the lost time
Am F C G C
One that will wake up the world and remind people that I'm still alive
F Am
What is it that you remember the most
C
The weight of the words
Em7
The smiles or the smoke
F Am
Or is it the gentle words that were spoken
C G C
Or the things that were not said at all.
