Chords:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes - Paul Simon --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard Paul Simon Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes (1986) (Paul Simon, Intro: Paul Simon/Joseph Shabalala) From: "Graceland" The a capella intro is in E, the song in F. I suggest using a capo 3rd fret and play D (C# for the intro). That way it is easy to play the licks between the vocal lines. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the main turnaround. Incorporate the voicings into your individual strumming pattern.Dsus4 Dsus4 D G A D D D G Ae|2---------------|3-------0-------|2---323-2-------|3-------0-------|B|3---------------|0-------2-------|3---333-3-------|0-------2-------|G|2---------------|0-------2-------|2---222-2-------|0-------2-------|D|0---------------|0-------2-------|0-------0-------|0-------2-------|A|----------------|x-------0-------|----------------|x-------0-------|E|----------------|3---------------|----------------|3---------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capo 3rd fret INTRO (a capella; the chords follow the vocal harmonies)C# She's a rich girl, she don't try to hide itC# Diamonds on the soles of her shoesC# He's a poor boy, empty as a pocketC# Empty as a pocket with nothing to loseF# C#Sing Ta-na-na, Ta-na-na-na,G# C#She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes (a-wa-a-wa)F# C#Ta-na-naa, Ta-na-naa-naG# C#She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes (a-wa-a-wa)G# C#Diamonds on the soles of her shoes (a-wa-a-wa)G# C#Diamonds on the soles of her shoes (a-wa-a-wa)G# C#Diamonds on the soles of her shoesSONG | D | G A | D | G A | | D | G A | D | G A |DPeople say she's crazyG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DShe's got diamonds on the soles of her shoes,G A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DWell that's one way to lose these, walking bluesG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G ADiamonds on the soles of her shoesD She was physically forgottenG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DThen she slipped into my pocket with my car keysG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DSaid you've taken me for granted, because I please youG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G AWearing these di-i-i-i-i-i-iamondsD G A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DAnd I could say oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DAs if everybody knows what I'm talking aboutG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DAs if everybody here would know exactly what I was talking aboutG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G ATalking about diamonds on the soles of her shoesLick (horns) | D G | A | D G | A | | D G | A | D G | A || D | G A | D | G A | Ooh-oh| D | G A | D | G A | Ooh-ohD Dsus4 D Dsus4 D She makes the sign of a teaspoonG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DHe makes the sign of a waveG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DThe poor boy changes clothes and puts on aftershaveG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G ATo compensate for his ordinary shoesD Dsus4 D Dsus4 DAnd she said honey take me dancing but theyG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DEnded up by sleeping in a doorwayG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DBy the bodegas and the lights on upper BroadwayG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G AWearing diamonds on the soles of her shoesD G A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DAnd I could say oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DAs if everybody knows what I'm talking aboutG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DAs if everybody here would know exactly what I was talking aboutG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G ATalking about diamonds on the soles of her shoesLick (horns) | D G | A | D G | A | | D G | A | D G | A || D | G A | D | G A | Ooh-oh| D | G A | D | G A | Ooh-ohD Dsus4 D Dsus4 D People say I'm crazyG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DI've got diamonds on the soles of my shoesG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DWell that's one way to lose these walking bluesG A D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G AWith Diamonds on the soles of my shoesTa-na-na-na-na, Ta-na-na-na-naah-ah-ahD G A Ta-na-na-na-na, Ta-na-na-na-naah-ah-ahD G A Ta-na-na-na-na, Ta-na-na-na-naah-ah-ahD G A Ta-na-na-na-na, Ta-na-na-na-naah-ah-ah(repeat and fade)
