#1. 
Bm                          D       E    Bm 
Who wants to buy-yyy,  this diamond ri...ng? 
    Bm                                     D      E    C 
She took it off her finger now, it doesn't mean a thing. 

F            Am           Dm           C 
This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore, 
    F            Am           Dm           C 
And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it did before, 
Dm           Am      Dm        Am      Gm7  C 
So if you've got someone who's love is true, 
                 F    F# 
Let it shine for you.
 

#2. 
Bm                          D           E    Bm 
This stone is genuine, like love should be...ee, 
    Bm                                D      E    C 
And if your baby's truer than my baby was to me...ee. 
 
F            Am       Dm             C 
This diamond ring can mean something beautiful, 
    F            Am          Dm              C 
And this diamond ring can be dreams that are coming true, 
    Dm        Am          Dm      Am         Gm        C  
And then your heart won't have to break like mine did, 
                F          F# 
if there's love behind it.
