[Intro]
G7 C G7
[Verse 1]
C G7
Your eyes are like simulated diamonds
G7 C
They fool many hearts seeking romance
C G7
Just when my spirit started climbing
G7 C C7
I found that you were false, I had no chance
F C
A simulated diamond can pass for the real thing
D7 G7
Your eyes had me fooled like a phony diamond ring
C G7
Your eyes are like simulated diamonds
G7 C G7
And I know they'll be false forevermore
[Verse 2]
C G7
I bought a simulated diamond
G7 C
It cost two dollars ninety-eight
C G7
I watched the diamond lose its sparkle
G7 C C7
And I'll watch your love turn to hate
F C
A simulated diamond has the looks of a real gem
D7 G7
Your eyes displayed a love for me, but now it's all so dim
C G7
Your eyes are like simulated diamonds
G7 C G7
And I know they'll be false forevermore

I know that I will never buy another diamond ring

'cause I'll never fall in love again, it won't be the real thing
C G7
Your eyes are like simulated diamonds
G7 C
And I know they'll be false forevermore
