C                     E7              F
Big diamonds big blue diamonds on her finger

  C                            G7
Instead of that little band of gold

    C                 E7              F
Big diamonds big blue diamonds tell a story

     C            G7                 C
Of a love that no one man could ever hold

 
    F                      C
She wanted more than I had money to buy

       D7                            G7
So she left me then got lonesome I'm told

    C                 E7                 F
Big diamonds big blue diamonds now she's traded

        C                G7             C
For the love behind that little band of gold

 
                      E7                F
Big diamonds big blue diamonds how they sparkle

    C                             G7
But what can they do to warm your soul

            C               E7                     F
When you're lonesome in the moonlight and you want loving

    C                 G7              C
Big diamonds big blue diamonds are so cold

 
  F                       C
I gladly to do my part to mend a broken heart

  D7                               G7
A love that's warmed over soon goes cold

    C                 E7               F
Big diamonds big blue diamonds I don't want them

       C             G7               C
I just want the love behind a band of gold
