Diamond Rings 2007 Lyrics

For the strumming use a simple base-strum down-up style. Listen to the song for what
best.
To get it to sound more like the song, I do a hammer-on for the next note after the base
So for G chord I hammer on 2nd fret on A string with 1st finger. For Dsus4/F# hammer on
fret on G string with 2nd finger, etc. So you hammer on right after plucking the base
and before the strum. Don't do this for D and Em, just strum regularly.

Intro:
Verse:
su
Oh it takes my life away
su
To think of her as gone
Now Im running down the maze
And Im finding only war
Blowing down the flame
#
To catch the burning wind
Now Im running out of steam
Now watch this man collapse
Chorus:
You said you wanted a better life
And you will tell me what you find
And then Ill stay the whole night through
And Ill turn from sad to blue
Yes Im choking after you
Yeah Im choking after you
Verse: (same as verse 1)
Wish you'd think of me
The way I think of you
Well I find it hard to breathe
Cause now I know the truth
So what good would fingers be
If it weren't for diamond rings?
Now I know you're leaving me
And I know that I'm no king
Chorus: (same)
And you said you wanted a better life
And you will tell me oh what you find
And then I stay the whole night through
And I turn from sad to blue
Yeah I'm choking after you
Miss, I'm choking now, do you?
Go ahead now, tell them all about it
(Solo plays here, strum chorus in the background)
Verse:
So what good would fingers be
If it weren't for diamond rings?
Now I know you're leaving me
And I know that I'm no king
