DIAMONDS AND RUST CHORDS
[Start] [Intro] Fm Bbm Fm C7 Fm ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [Verse] Fm Well I'll be damned Db Here comes your ghost again Ab But that's not unusual Eb It's just that the moon is full Fm And you happened to call Fm And here I sit Db Hand on the telephone Ab Hearing a voice I'd known Eb A couple of light years ago Fm Heading straight for a fall Fm As I remember your eyes Db Were bluer than robin's eggs Ab My poetry was lousy you said Eb Where are you calling from Fm A booth in the Midwest [Chorus] Db Ten years ago I bought you some cufflinks Ab You brought me something Eb We both know what memories can bring [Inst] Fm C7 Fm Db They bring diamonds and ■ ■ rust [Verse] Ab Eb Fm Db Ab Eb Fm Cm Cm7 Now I see ■ ■ you ■ ■ standing with brown leaves [Chorus] Bbm7 Bbm Falling all around and snow in your hair Cm7 Now you're smiling out the window Bbm7 Bbm Bbm7 Of that crummy hotel over Washington Square ■ ■ Db Our breath comes out white clouds Ab Mingles and hangs in the air Gb Speaking strictly for me Ab C7 We both could have died then and there ■ [Inst] [Verse] Fm Db ■ Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic Ab Then give me another word for it Eb You were so good with words Fm And at keeping things vague [Chorus] Fm 'cause I need some of that vagueness now Db It's all come back too clearly Ab Yes I loved you dearly Eb And if you're offering me diamonds and rust Fm I've already paid [Outro]
