Diamond Rings 2007 chords

Diamond Rings 2007

• Em7

Capo 4

For the strumming use a simple base-strum down-up style. Listen to the song for what sounds
best.

To get it to sound more like the song, I do a hammer-on for the next note after the base note.
So for G chord I hammer on 2nd fret on A string with 1st finger. For Dsus4/F# hammer on 2nd
fret on G string with 2nd finger, etc. So you hammer on right after plucking the base 
and before the strum. Don't do this for D and Em, just strum regularly.

Verse:
      G       Dsus4/F#     Em7     D       Em
Oh it takes   my           life    away
   G         Dsus4/F#      Em7       D     Em
To think     of            her    as gone
       G  Dsus4/F#       Em7      D        Em
Now Im running           down the maze
        G  Dsus4/F#      Em7    D          D
And Im  finding          only   war

G  Dsus4/F#         Em7      D             Em
Blowing             down the flame
   G         Dsus4/F#        Em7     D     Em
To catch     the             burning wind
        G  Dsus4/F#    Em7    D            Em
Now Im  running        out of steam
    G     Dsus4/F#   Em7        D          D
Now watch this       man        collapse


Chorus:
D            Em             D
You said you wanted a better life
             Em           D
And you will tell me what you find
              G     Dsus4/F#     Em7          D        Em
And then Ill  stay   the         whole night through
         G      Dsus4/F#       Em7       D             Em
And Ill  turn   from           sad to    blue
          G  Dsus4/F#    Em7     D               Em
Yes Im    choking        after   you
         G  Dsus4/F#     Em7       D
Yeah Im  choking         after     you

Verse: (same as verse 1)
Wish you?d think of me
The way I think of you
Well I find it hard to breathe
Cause now I know the truth

So what good would fingers be
If it weren?t for diamond rings?
Now I know you?re leaving me
And I know that I?m no king

Chorus: (same)
And you said you wanted a better life
And you will tell me oh what you find
And then I stay the whole night through
And I turn from sad to blue
Yeah I?m choking after you
Miss, I?m choking now, do you?

Go ahead now, tell them all about it

(Solo plays here, strum chorus in the background)

Verse:
So what good would fingers be
If it weren?t for diamond rings?
Now I know you?re leaving me
And I know that I?m no king
