(Capo at 2nd fret)
CDiamonds, roses,
I need Moses to cross thisF sea of lonliness,
PartF this red river of pain. C
I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness,
But I need Fa little place in the sun sometimeFs or I think I will die. C
And everFywhere is somewherFe and nowhere is near, C
Everybody Fgot somebody withF their wine and their Cbeer.
So, I'm justF this tragic figurFe in the corner ovCer here,
With an eFmpty apartment and a best friend who Fis a queer.
CEverytime I see him he smiles and he tells me how well he's walking these miles,
But I he nevFer ever asks a single thing about me,
If I Fdie, he'd hear about it eventually.
CDiamonds, roses,
I need Moses to cross thisF sea of lonliness,
PartF this red river of pain. C
And everFywhere is somewherFe and nowhere is near, C
EverybodFy got somebody with Ftheir wine and their Cbeer.
So, I'm jusFt this tragic figureF in the corner oveCr here,
Go home to an empty apaFrtment and call a best friend who is a Fqueer.
CDiamonds, roses,
I need Moses to cross thiFs sea of lonliness,
PaFrt this red river of painC.
