Verse 1: 0:18
Em
I'll be damned,
                  C
Here comes your ghost again
                 G
But that's not unusual,
                    D
It's just that the moon is full
                   Em
And you decided to call.

Verse 2: 0:35
     Em
And here I sit,
             C
Hand on the telephone
             G
Hearing the voice I'd known
             D
A couple of light years ago
                       Em
Headed straight for a fall.

Chorus: 0:53
        C
But we both know
                    D
What memories can bring,
                         Em
They bring diamonds and rust.
1:00
         C
Yes, we both know
                    D
What memories can bring,
                         Em
They bring diamonds and rust.

Bridge: 1:07
       Bm
Now I see you standing all around
                  Am
And snow in your hair.
            Bm
Now we're smiling out the window of the crummy hotel
                   Am
Over Washington Square.
1:23
      C
Our breath comes in white clouds,
                         G
Mingles and hangs in the air
            Fmaj7
Speaking strictly for me
                                 B ->
We both could've died then and there.

Verse 3: 1:55
            Em
Now you're telling me
               C
You're not nostalgic
                      G
Then give me another word for it
             D
You were so good with words
                       Em
And at keeping things vague.

Verse 4: 2:13
      Em
Cause I need some of that vagueness now
                         C
It's all come back too clearly,
                 G
Yes, I love you dearly
                           D
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust,
              Em
I've already paid.

 C         D            Em
Diamonds, diamonds and rust.

Diamonds, diamonds and rust.

 C         D            Em
Diamonds, diamonds and rust.
(No more, no more.)

Diamonds, diamonds and rust.
