[N] [C]
I've got diamonds in my backyard, well they grow just like [D] weed.
You'll come [F] and gather them in bundles, [Bm] take all [D] that you need, but save [G] the flowers there
for me, dear.
Take the [E] diamonds for [Am] your greed, cause the [C] flowers don't grow [G] like [C] weeds.
[G] [Am] [C]
Glory, glory, hallelujah.
I'm lost and she's found another [F] lover to give her shelter.
[F#] The fields [Bm] [D] have turned brown, another [G] kind man to warm her.
When the [E] snow [Am] finds the ground, the [C] only girl [G] who made the world [C] go round.
But there are some things worth [G] remembering.
[C] Others left for time to come [F] and weather and to change the [D] winds of your [Am] mind.
But don't [C] forget me while you're leaving.
[Em] Just remember my [Am] rhyme, cause [C] it's all that [G] I've borrowed [C] from time.
