Ben Harper

Key: A



A                          Bm

I knew a girl, Her name was truth

C#m             Bm   A

She was, a horrible liar

A                  Bm

She couldnt spend, one day alone

        C#m       Bm       A

But she couldnt, be satisfied



A             Bm

When you have, everything

C#m       Bm            A

You have everything to lose

A               Bm

She made herself, a bed of nails

          C#m           Bm            A

And shes planning, on putting it to use





            G        D      A

But she had diamonds on the inside

She had diamonds on the inside

She had diamonds on the inside

G  D  A

Diamonds





A                                   Bm

A candle throws its light, into the darkness

     C#m              Bm            A

In a nasty world, so shines a good deed

A                    Bm

Make sure the fortune, that you seek

       C#m       Bm      A

Is the fortune that you need







A          Bm

Tell me why, the first to ask

       C#m       Bm         A

Is the last, to give every time

A                Bm

What you say, and do not mean

C#m          Bm      A

Follows you close behind









            G        D      A

Bridge



         A                            Bm

Like the soldier long standing, under fire

C#m          Bm            A

Any change, comes as a relief

        A                    Bm

Let the givers name, remain unspoken

C#m            Bm         A

She is just a generous thief



        G        D      A

She had diamonds on the inside

Oh diamonds

She had diamonds

She wore diamonds
