(Capo at 2nd fret)
RE
Diamonds, roses,
LA
I need Moses to cross this sea of lonliness,
SOL RE
Part this red river of pain.
I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness,
LA SOL RE
But I need a little place in the sun sometimes or I think I will die.
LA SOL RE
And everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near,
LA SOL RE
Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer.
LA SOL RE
So, I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here,
LA SOL
With an empty apartment and a best friend who is a queer.
RE
Everytime I see him he smiles and he tells me how well he's walking these miles,
LA
But I he never ever asks a single thing about me,
SOL
If I die, he'd hear about it eventually.

Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer.

So, I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here,
LA SOL
Go home to an empty apartment and call a best friend who is a queer.
