[Intro]
A C Eb Bb F
A C Eb Bb F A
[Verse]
As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent
E
You asked for the latest party
D
With your silicone hump and your ten inch stump
A
Dressed like a priest you was, Tod Browning's freak you was
Crawling down the alley on your hands and knee
E
I'm sure you're not protected, for it's plain to see
D
The diamond dogs are poachers and they hide behind trees
A
Hunt you to the ground they will, mannequins with kill appeal
[Chorus 1]
E
Will they come...I'll keep a friend serene
G
Will they come...Oh baby, come unto me
A
Will they come...Well, she's come, been and gone
D
Come out of the garden, baby
A
You'll catch your death in the fog
B D A
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
B D A
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
[Verse]
The Halloween Jack is a real cool cat
E
And he lives on top of Manhattan Chase
D
The elevator's broke, so he slides down a rope
A
Onto the street below, oh Tarzie, go man go
Meet his little hussy with his ghost town approach
E
Her face is sans feature, but she wears a Dali brooch
D
Sweetly reminiscent, something mother used to bake
A
Wrecked up and paralyzed, Diamond Dogs are sableized
[Chorus 2]
E A
Oo oo ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs
E D
Oo oo ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs
[Instrumental]
A C Eb Bb F
A C Eb Bb F A
[Verse]
In the year of the scavenger, the season of the bitch
E
Sashay on the boardwalk, scurry to the ditch
D
Just another future song, lonely little kitsch
A
There's gonna be sorrow try and wake up tomorrow
[Chorus 3]
E A
Oo oo ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs
E A
Oo oo ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs
E A
Call them the Diamond Dogs, Dogs
E A
Call them the Diamond Dogs, call them, call them
E A
Call them the Diamond Dogs, call them, call them, oo
E D
Call them the Diamond Dogs
[Intro]
[Outro]
A
Beware of the Diamond Dogs
