Toole (TMichaelT@aol.com) EADGBE (Capo at 2nd fret) D Diamonds, roses, A I need Moses to cross this sea of lonliness, G D Part this red river of pain. I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness, A G D But I need a little place in the sun sometimes or I think I will die. A G D And everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near, A G D Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer. A G D So, I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here, A G With an empty apartment and a best friend who is a queer. D Everytime I see him he smiles and he tells me how well he's walking these miles, A But I he never ever asks a single thing about me, G If I die, he'd hear about it eventually. D Diamonds, roses, A I need Moses to cross this sea of lonliness, G D Part this red river of pain. A G D And everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near, A G D Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer. A G D So, I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here, A G Go home to an empty apartment and call a best friend who is a queer. D Diamonds, roses, A I need Moses to cross this sea of lonliness, G D Part this red river of pain.
