INTRO CHORUS:       (## Sung a Cappella ##)
C           G         C           G
Diamonds to Dust, oh, Diamonds to Dust
C             G    D           G
Time can turn even Diamonds to Dust
C           G         C           G
Diamonds to Dust, oh, Diamonds to Dust
C             G    D           G
Time can turn even Diamonds to Dust
 
 
INTRO: C  G  D  Em  C  G  D  G   (2x)
 
 
C         G             C        G
Love is a question that few understand
   C           G               Em        A
It runs like a river between a woman and man
        C              G               C           Em
But its course can get twisted and its bed can run dry
        C            G             D          G 
And our heart become desert in the wink of an eye
 
 
INTERLUDE: C G D Em C G D G
 
 
C              G              C              G
Once there was love here, and once there was trust
C           G          Em       A
Once it was honest and open and just
    C          G            C            Em
Our love was a diamond that grew between us
    C             G    D           G 
But time can turn even Diamonds to Dust
  
  
CHORUS:
C           G         C           G
Diamonds to Dust, oh, Diamonds to Dust
C             G    D           G
Time can turn even Diamonds to Dust
 
 
INTERLUDE: C  G  D  Em  C  G  D  G
           C   G       D   Em   C   G       D   G
           Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
 
  
C         G             C             G
Time is a teacher, it's kind and it's cruel
   C             G         Em           A
It gives you the wisdom to see you're a fool
       C              G              C            Em
And it gives love and takes love, it hurts and it heals
       C           G             D          G 
And it never parts easy with the truth it reveals
 
 
CHORUS:
C           G         C           G
Diamonds to Dust, oh, Diamonds to Dust
C             G    D           G
Time can turn even Diamonds to Dust
C           G         C           G
Diamonds to Dust, oh, Diamonds to Dust
C             G    D           G
Time can turn even Diamonds to Dust
