CAPO 1
 
[Verse 1]
G               Am
I knew a girl     Her name was truth
Bm           Am        G
She was, a ho___rrible liar
G                   Am
 She couldn't spend, one day alone
        Bm            Am        G
But she couldn't, be___ satisfied
G             Am
When you have, everything
          Bm       Am     G
You have every__thing to lose
G                 Am
 She made herself,  a bed of nails
            Bm             Am            G
And she's planning, o__n putting it to use
 
[Chorus]
                F       C      G
But she wore diamonds on the inside
           F       C      G
She wore diamonds on the inside
          F       C      G
She has diamonds on the inside
F  C  G
Diamonds
 
[Verse 2]
  G                                Am
A candle throws its light into the darkness
      Bm               Am         G
In a nasty world, so shines, a good deed
G                      Am
 Make sure the fortune,  that you seek
        Bm        Am      G
Is the fortu__ne that, you need
G                 Am
 Tell me why,  the first to ask
       Bm            Am         G
Is the last, one to give every time
G                        Am
 What you 're saying, and do not mean
   Bm          Am       G
Follow__s you, close behind
 
[Chorus]
              F       C      G
But she has diamonds on the inside
           F       C      G
She wore diamonds on the inside
          F       C      G
She has diamonds on the inside  ohh
F  C  G    F  C  G
Diamonds   Diamonds    (on the inside)

[Verse 3]
         G                             Am
Like the soldier long standing, under fire
     Bm     Am              G
Any change,  comes as a relief
        G                     Am
Let the givers name remain unspo__ken
  Bm               Am     G
She is just a generous thief
 
[Chorus]
           F       C      G
She wore diamonds on the inside
           F       C      G
She has diamonds on the inside
           F       C      G
You have diamonds on the inside  ohh
   F  C   G
Oh diamonds     (x3)
          F       C       G
She wore diamonds on the inside
           F C  G   F  C G
You have diamonds, diamonds
