[A]
The French [Bb] are glad [A] to die for love

[Dbm] A [Fm] [Bm] kiss may be grand
[Bm] But it won't pay the rental [Abm] on your humble flat
[Bm] Or help you [Db] at the auto map

[Bb] [A] And we [G] all lose [Gbm] our [Fm] charms in [Gbm] the end

But get that [F] ice or else no [Em] dice
[Gbm]
He's [A] your [Bb] guy when stocks are [Bm] high
[Gbm] But beware when they start [B]
[Bm] to descend
[Fm] [E] [A] It's then that [Dbm] those louses [G] go [E] back [Gb] to their spouses
[D] Diamonds are a [G] [Db] girl's [A] best friend
