C5                   G#5
  Don't blame your daughter
               Eb5
that's just sentimental
                      Bb5
and don't blame your mom
                           C5
for all that you've done wrong
                  G#5
Your dad is not guilty
                        Eb5
you came out a little faulty
                   Bb5
and the factory closed
                         F5
so you can't hold them liable
      G#5         Eb5
You come from an island,
       Bb5      F5
you're cutting diamonds
       G#5      Eb5
with a rubbery knife


C5                      G#5
    Your autograph is worthless
                  Eb5
so don't send me letters
                   Bb5
and don't mail me cash
                          C5
'cause your money is no good
                      G#5
What's left in your matress
                       Eb5
is holes and lack of love left
                   Bb5
some hair from a horse,


                     F5
and none of it is yours, man
     G#5           Eb5
You come from an island,
       Bb5      F5
you're cutting diamonds
       G#5      Eb5
with a rubbery knife


        G#5       Eb5      Bb5
And the song you sing today
       Eb5             G#5
wasn't always in your head,
     G#5       Eb5        Bb5
the words you tryin' to say
        Eb5                       G#5
are the ones you shouldn't have said
        F5              C5
they're glistenin' like diamonds,
F5          C5
go out and find' em
    C5     Eb5   F5    G#5
but don't blame your daughter


C5                 G#5
   Read me your tombstone,
                Eb5                 Bb5
tell me you're sorry, fax me your will,
                      C5
you owe me something still
               G#5
Blood is like water
                  Eb5
the bath that you poured me
                      Bb5
has drained and it's gone,
                       Eb5
don't blame it on your son


        G#5       Eb5      Bb5
And the song you sing today
       Eb5             G#5
wasn't always in your head,
     G#5       Eb5        Bb5
the words you tryin' to say
        Eb5                      G#5
are the ones you shouldn't have said
        F5              C5 
they're glistening like diamonds,
F5         C5 
go out and find'em
G#5  ..  Eb5   ..   Bb5

Eb5  ..  G#5

G#5 ..   Eb5   ..   Bb5

Eb5 ..   G#5

    F5               C5
The world is full of diamonds
F5         C5
go out and find'em
    C5    Eb5    F5  C#5
but don't blame your daughter


C5
