Diamonds And Rust Cifras

[Intro]
Dm
 
[Verse]
Dm
Well, I'll be damned
                Bb
Here comes your ghost again
                 F
But that's not unusual
                   C
It's just that the moon is full
                    Dm
And you happened to call
 
[Verse]
Dm
And here I sit
               Bb
My hand on the telephone
          F
Hearing a voice I'd known
            C
A couple of light years ago
                       Dm
Heading straight for a fall
 
[Verse]
Dm
As I remember your eyes
                Bb
Were bluer than robin's eggs
              F
My poetry was lousy you said
              C
Where are you calling from?
                Dm
A booth in the Midwest
 
[Verse]
Dm
Ten years ago
               Bb
I bought you some cufflinks
                      F
Oh, and you brought me something
                  C
We both know what memories can bring
N.C.                    Dm
They bring diamonds and rust
 
[Instrumental]
Dm   Bb   F   C
 
[Verse]
      Dm
Well, you burst on the scene
          Bb
Already a legend
                F
The unwashed phenomenon
             C
The original vagabond
                   Dm
You strayed into my arms
 
[Verse]
Dm
And there you stayed
            Bb
Temporarily lost at sea
                F
The Madonna was yours for free
                     C
Yes, the girl on the half-shell
                 Dm
Could keep you unharmed
 
[Bridge]
      Am                                                        Gm
Now I see you standing with leaves falling around and snow in your hair
           Am                                                 Gm
Now you're smiling out the window of that hotel over Washington Square
    Bb                                                 F
Our breath comes out white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air
         Eb                                                F       A7
Speaking strictly for me, we both could have died then and there
 
[Verse]
    Dm
Now you're telling me
              Bb
You're not nostalgic
                           F
Well, then give me another word for it
                   C
You were always so good with words
                     Dm
And at keeping things vague
 
[Verse]
Dm
'Cause I need some of that vagueness now
                   Bb
It's all come back too clearly
               F
Oh, I loved you dearly
                      C
If you're offering me diamonds and rust
N.C.      Dm     Bb    F   C
I've already paid___
             Dm    Bb   F   C
Diamonds and rust
             Dm    Bb   F   C
Diamonds and rust
             Dm    Bb   F   C
Diamonds and rust
