	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7
	Diamond	life,			lover	boy.

	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7
	We move in	space with	minimum	waste and	maxi	mum	joy.

	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7
	City	light	s	and	business	night	s.

	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7
When	you re	quire	streetcar	desire for	higher	heigh	ts.

	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Dm/Db	Am7/C	Am7/B
	No place for	beginners or sensitive	hearts

	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Dm/Db	Am7/C	Am7/B
	When senti	ment is left to	chance.

	Gm7	Am7	Dm
	No place to be	ending but somewhere to	start.

	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7
	Face to	face			each classic	case

	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7
We	shadow	box and	double	cross,

	Dm	Am7	Gm7	Am7
Yet	need the	chase

	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Dm/Db	Am7/C	Am7/B
	A license to	love, insurance to	hold

	Gm7	Am7	Dm	Dm/Db	Am7/C	Am7/B
	Melts all your	memories and change into	gold

	Gm7	Am7	Dm
	His eyes are like	angels but his heart is	cold.

No need to ask.
