...DIAMONDS & GOLD...
Originally by Tom Waits
I adapted cLuMsY's version
http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/t/tom_waits/diamonds_and_gold_crd.htm
so it's (somewhat) closer to the version done by My Terrible Friend

CAPO 1st fret


[Intro]

Am F (x2)

[Verse 1]

Am F Am F
Broken glass, rusty nails,
Am Dm C E7
Where the wild violets grow.
Am F Am F
Say goodbye to the railroad, the mad dogs of summer,
Am E7 Am
And everything that I know.

[Chorus]

F Am
What some men will do here for diamonds,
F Am
What some men will do here for gold.
F Am
They're wounded, but they just keep on climbing,
F E7
And sleep by the side of the road.

[Bridge 1]

Am E7 C D
There's a hole in the ladder, a fence we can climb,
Dm Am E7
Mad as a hatter; you're thin as a dime.
Am E7 C D
Go out to the meadow; the hills are a-green,
Dm Am E7
Sing me a rainbow, steal me a dream.

[Interlude]

Am F (x2)

[Verse 2]

Am F Am F
Small-time Napoleon's shattered his knees,
Am Dm C E7
But he stays in the saddle for Rose.
Am F Am F
And all his disciples, they shave in the gutter,
Am E7 Am
And they gather what's left of his clothes.

[Chorus 2]

F Am
What some men will do here for diamonds,
F Am
What some men will do here for gold.
F Am
They're wounded, but they just keep on climbing,
F E7
And sleep by the side of the road.

[Bridge 2]

Am E7 C D
There's a hole in the ladder, a fence we can climb,
Dm Am E7
Mad as a hatter; you're thin as a dime.
Am E7 C D
Go out to the meadow; the hills are a-green,
Dm Am E7
Sing me a rainbow, steal me a dream.
