Chorus:
Em C G I know you can't hold out forever Em C G D Waiting on a diamond and a tether Em C From a boy who won't swim B7 Em Who won't dip his toe in A7 C G Just to keep you here with him G C G C I've got this habit I abhor Am C G G When we go out, I'm always watching the door G C G C As if there's someone I'm going to see Am C G Who could out-do the things that you do to me Em C G I know you can't hold out forever Em C G D Waiting on a diamond and a tether Em C From a boy who won't fly B7 Em Who won't take to the skies A7 C G If he thinks you're about to say goodbye
( Instrumental break )
G C G C Pity, take pity on me Am C G cause I'm not half the man that I should be G C G C And I don't blame you, you've had enough Am C G With all these empty promises and countless bluffs Em C G I know you can't hold out forever Em C G D Waiting on a diamond and a tether Em C From a boy who won't jump B7 Em When he's falls in love A7 C Em He just stands with his toes on the edge A7 C G And he waits for it to disappear again
