intro:
 la c pas compliqué, on met place ces doigt sur l'acord G (juste sur les cordes E et B)puis:

     E----(3)---------------------3--...
     B----(3)---------------------3--...
     D----------------------------0--... puis Am7(1) Bm7 Am7(2)
     G--------------3-0-----------0--...
     A------------------3-0-------2--...
     E----------------------3-0---3--...

      
       ce petit riff ce joue avant chaque partie du refrain.
on trouve aussi une variante sur le C du refrain comme ceci:
          C(010230)===>(010030)===>(010230)
 

              G           
      I knew a girl
Am7(1)
      Her name was truth
Bm7              Am7(2)
      She was a horrible liar
 

et la on fait juste apres le Am7 on revien sur


     E----3--3--3---
     B----3--3--3---
     D----0--2--0---     et on recommence
     G----0--3--2---
     A----2--0--3---
     E----3--0--0---
 


G                        Am7(1)
      She couldn’t spend one day alone
              Bm7         Am7(2)
      But she couldn’t be satisfied

When you have everything
You have everything to lose
She made herself a bed of nails
And she’s planning on putting it to use

                    F       C      G
(riff) But she had diamonds on the inside
                F        C      G
(riff) She had diamonds on the inside
                F        C      G
(riff) She had diamonds on the inside
       F C     G
(riff) Diamonds


A candle throws its light into the darkness
In a nasty world so shines a good deed
Make sure the fortune that you seek
Is the fortune that you need
Tell me why the first to ask
Is the last to give everytime
What you say and do not mean
Follows you close behind

But she had diamonds on the inside
she had diamonds on the inside
she wore diamonds on the inside
diamonds

Like the soldier long standing under fire
Any change comes as a relief
Let the giver’s name remain unspoken
She is just a generous thief

But she had diamonds on the inside
she had diamonds on the inside
she wore diamonds on the inside 
diamonds
