[Verse 1]
G                Am
I knew a girl her name was truth
Bm                Am     G
She was, a horrible liar
G                              Am
She couldn't spend, one day alone
Bm                             Am G
But she couldn't, be satisfied
G                         Am
When you have, everything
                Bm   Am             G
You have everything to lose
G                         Am
She made herself, a bed of nails
                    Bm                 Am              G
And she's planning, on putting it to use

[Chorus]
                                F     C       G
But she wore diamonds on the inside
                   F                 C     G
She wore diamonds on the inside
                      F             C      G
She has diamonds on the inside
F    C    G
Diamonds

[Verse 2]
G                                               Am
A candle throws its light into the darkness
Bm                             Am             G
In a nasty world, so shines, a good deed
G                               Am
Make sure the fortune, that you seek
           Bm  Am              G
Is the fortune that, you need
G                   Am
Tell me why, the first to ask
Bm                        Am                G
Is the last, one to give every time
G                                  Am
What you 're saying, and do not mean
Bm                   Am G
Follows you, close behind

[Verse 3]
G                                                  Am
Like the soldier long standing, under fire
            Bm Am                   G
Any change, comes as a relief
G                                            Am
Let the givers name remain unspoken
Bm                       Am G
She is just a generous thief
