Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend Marilyn Monroe
The F[C]rench are g[Fm]lad[Fdim] to d[C]ie for love,
They d[C]elight in f[Fm]ight -[Fdim] ing d[C]uels;
But[Bm7-5] I pre[E7]fer a [Am]man who l[Am+7]ives
[A7]And g[D]ives ex[D7]pensive [G9]jew - e[G]ls!
A [C]kiss [G]on the h[C]and [Cdim]may be q[C]uite [Em7]con - ti -[Cdim] nen - tal, [C]
But d[C]iamonds [Em7]are a [Am7]girl's [Cdim]best fr[G7]iend;
A k[Dm]iss [A7]may be g[Dm]rand, [A7]but it [Dm7]won't[Cdim] pay the [G7]rental
[Cdim]On your [Dm7]humble flat,[G7] or h[Dm7]elp you [G7]at the [C]automat.
[C]Men g[C/B]row c[Am]old [C7]as g[F]irls gr[C]ow o[F]ld,
A[G]nd we [C]all [C/B]lose our c[Am7]harms[Cdim] in the e[G]nd,
But s[C]quare-c[G]ut or [Am]pear s[Em]haped,
These ro[C]cks d[G]on't lose [Bm7-5]their s[A7]hape --
D[F]iamonds[Fdim] are a [G/B]girl's [G7]best fr[C]iend.
There m[C]ay co[G]me a t[C]ime [Cdim]when a l[C]ass n[Em7]eeds a [Cdim]lawyer, [C]
But d[C]iamonds [Em7]are a [Am7]girl's [Cdim]best fr[G7]iend;
There [Dm]may [A7]come a t[Dm]ime w[A7]hen a h[Dm7]ard-[Cdim]boiled em[G7]ployer
[Cdim]Thinks you're [Dm7]awful nice [G7]-- but [Dm7]get that [G7]ice or e[C]lse, no dice.
[C]He's [C/B]your [Am]guy [C7]when [F]stocks [C]are [F]high,
[G]But bew[C]are [C/B]when they [Am7]start[Cdim] to desc[G]end,
It's [C]then th[G]at those [Am]lous - [Em]es go ba[C]ck [G]to their [Bm7-5]spou - [A7]ses --
[F]Diamond[Fdim]s are a[G/B] girl's[G7] best f[C]riend.
I've h[C]eard [G]of affa[C]irs [Cdim]that are s[C]tric[Em7]tly pla[Cdim]tonic. [C]
But d[C]iamonds [Em7]are a [Am7]girl's [Cdim]best fr[G7]iend;
And[Dm] I t[A7]hink aff[Dm]airs [A7]that you [Dm7]must keep lia[Cdim]isonic [G7]
Are [Cdim]better b[Dm7]ets [G7] if l[Dm7]ittle pe[G7]ts get b[C]ig baguettes.
[C]Time [C/B]rolls [Am]on a[C7]nd yo[F]uth [C]is g[F]one,
[G]And you c[C]an't [C/B]straighten[Am7] up [Cdim]when you b[G]end,
But s[C]tiff ba[G]ck or st[Am]iff kn[Em]ees, you s[C]tand st[G]raight at ... [Bm7-5]Tiff' - [A7]ny's
[F]Diamonds ... [Fm7]diamonds ... [C]I d[E7]on't mean [Bm7-5]rhine - s[A]tones
[A9]But [F]diamonds[F#7] [G] are a [Fdim]girl's b[G]est [C] [F] [Fm7] [C] b[G]est fr[C]iend.
