C F Am F
[Verse]
Fmaj7
There's one sitting in a pawn shop, glass counter,
Am G
someone down in California someone traded it for a TV.
Fmaj7 Am
Another one in a pretty blue box somewhere up in New York,
G
white ribbon, Tiffany's.
F
One's catching dust in a drawer, in a dresser,
Am G F
at your Grandma's house, it's been there since 1953,
G
but honestly.
[Chorus]
C F
A diamond's just a diamond 'til you put on the right left hand.
Am F
Love is just a word 'til you feel it and you finally understand.
C F
Some things don't mean anything 'til one day they mean everything,
Am G F
and you're flying, smiling, and shining,
C F
kinda like diamonds.
Am F
kinda like diamonds
[Verse 2]
F
I ain't saying they ain't pretty, and the way they feel
Am G
doesn't feel just like an answer to a little girl's dream.
Fmaj7 Am
I ain't saying they ain't fun to show to your friends,
G
and get the chills when you hear 'em scream.
F Am
But if you're hearts not in it,
C
forget it.
[Chorus]
C F
A diamond's just a diamond 'til you put on the right left hand.
Am F
Love is just a word 'til you feel it and you finally understand.
C F
Some things don't mean anything 'til one day they mean everything,
Am G F
and you're flying, smiling, and shining,
C F
kinda like diamonds.
Am F
kinda like diamonds
[Bridge]
Am G Dm7 F
I don't need one just to hold on to,
Am G F
I don't want one unless it comes with you.
[Chorus]
C F
A diamond's just a diamond 'til you put on the right left hand.
Am F
Love is just a word 'til you feel it and you finally understand.
C F
Some things don't mean anything 'til one day they mean everything,
Am G F
and you're flying, smiling, and shining,
C F
kinda like diamonds.
Am F
kinda like diamonds
