Patty Griffin Moses written by Patty Griffin
E
Diamonds, roses,I need Moses
B A E
To cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
E
I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness
B A E
But I need a little place in the sun sometimes Or I think I will die
B A E
Everywhere is somewhere And nowhere is near
B A E
Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer
B A E
So I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here
B A
With an empty apartment and a best friend who is queer
E
Everytime I see him he smiles
And he tells me how well he's walking these miles
B
But he never ever asks a single thing about me
A
If I die, he'd hear about it eventually
E
Diamonds, roses, I need Moses
B A E
To cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
B A E
Everywhere is somewhere And nowhere is near
B A E
Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer
B A E
So I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here
B A
Go home to an empty apartment and call a best friend who is a queer
E
Diamonds, roses, I need Moses
B A E
to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
B A E
to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
B A E
to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
