Marilyn Monroe -
Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend
 
[Intro]
A Bb AThe French are glad to die for love
Bb AThey delight in fighting duels
Ddim F#m EmBut I prefer a man who lives
D E7 AAnd gives expensive jewels
 
[Verse 1]
Amaj7A kiss on the hand
A7May be quite continental
Amaj7 A E7But diamonds are a girl's best friend
Bm7A kiss may be grand
E7But it won't pay the rental
B7On your humble flat
D E7Or help you at the automat
 
 
[Chorus 1]
Amaj7Men grow cold
Bm7As girls grow old
A Amaj7 E7And we all lose our charms in the end
A Amaj7But square-cut or pear-shaped
A7 F#7These rocks don't loose their shape
Bm7 E7 ADiamonds are a girl's best friend
 
[Bridge]
BbTiffany's
A Bb A BbCartier
DdimBlack Starr
F#mFrost Gorham
EmTalk to me Harry Winston
D7 Bm7 E7Tell me all about it
 
[Verse 2]
A Amaj7There may come a time
A7When a lass needs a lawyer
Amaj7 A E7But diamonds are a girl's best friend
Bm7There may come a time
E7When a hard-boiled employer
 
B7Thinks you're awful nice
D E7But get that ice or else no dice
 
[Chorus 2]
Amaj7He's your guy
Bm7When stocks are high
A Amaj7 E7But beware when they start to descend
A Amaj7It's then that those louses
A7 F#7Go back to their spouses
Bm7 E7 ADiamonds are a girl's best friend
 
[Instrumental]
A Bb A
Bb B F7
 
[Verse 3]
Bb Bbmaj7I've heard of affairs
Bb7That are strictly platonic
Bbmaj7 Cm7 F7But diamonds are a girl's best friend
Cm7And I think affairs
F7That you must keep liaisonic
C7Are better bets
Eb F7If little pets get big baguettes
 
[Chorus 3]
BbTime rolls on
Cm7And youth is gone
Bb Bb7 F7And you can't straighten up when you bend
BbBut stiff back
Bb7Or stiff knees
Bb7 G7You stand straight at Tiffany's
Cm7Diamonds
EbmDiamonds
Bb7 G7I don't mean rhinestones
Cm7 Ebm Bb Eb F7But diamonds are a girl's best
BbBest friend
