Diamond In Your Mind by Tom Waits
Diamond In Your Mind
Verse 1:
E E7
Shook the hands with the president, and then the pope in Rome;
A A7
I've been to parties where I've had to be flown;
C#m G#m C#m G#m
They told me everything was sacred, nothing is profane;
C#m G#m B7
Money's something that you throw off of the back of a train.

Chorus:
E B
Always keep a diamond in your mind
E7 A7
Always keep a diamond in your mind
E
Wherever you may wander
A Am
Wherever you may roam
E B7 E
Always keep a diamond in your mind
---
Verse 2:
E E7
Steamer of gravy with the little fried pearls
A A7
Floating like a necklace on a beautiful girl
C#m G#m C#m G#m
And Chalmers said thanks for the food and land
C#m G#m B7
And somethin' about God that I just don't understand
---

Always keep a diamond in your mind

Bridge:
A E
She's got the milk of human kindness and the fat of the land
B E
Skin like a baby, but she drives like a man
A E
She lives in Natchez, and she operates a crane
F#7 B7
She's like a wrecking ball that's no longer connected to the chain
Verse 3:
E E7
Zerelda Samuels said she ain't never prayed
A A7
Since her right arm was blown off in a Pinkerton raid
C#m G#m C#m G#m
They lashed her to a windmill with 3-fingered Dave
C#m G#m B7
Now she's a hundred and two and drinkin' juleps in the shade

Wherever you may roam

Always keep a diamond in your mind
(Finish on E)
