Who wants to buy this diamond ring?

She took it off her finger now, it doesn't mean a thing.
F Am/E Dm C
This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore

And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it did before.

So if you've got someone who's love is true,

let it shine for you.

This stone is genuine, like love should be.

And if your baby's truer than my baby was to me.
F Am/E Dm C
This diamond ring can be something beautiful
F Am/E Dm C
and this diamond ring can be dreams that are coming true
Dm Am Dm Am Gm
and then your heart won't have to break like mine did
C F F#
If there's love behind it.
[ Instrumental as per verse chords]
F Am/E Dm C
This diamond ring can be something beautiful
F Am/E Dm C
and this diamond ring can be dreams that are coming true

and then your heart won't have to break like mine did.

If there's love behind it.
[ repeat to fade ]
