I new a girl Her name was truth, She was a horrible liar
She couldn’t spend one day alone, 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

But she had diamonds on the inside, She had diamonds on the inside
F C G F C G
She had diamonds on the inside, 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 every time
What you say and do not mean Follows you close behind
Chorus
D C Em C | D Em C D | Em C | D (see tab on next page for solo)
Like the soldier long standing under fire, Any change comes as a relief
Let the givers name remain unspoken, She is just a generous thief
Chorus (x2)
