| A | C | Eb | Bb | F | A |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| INTRO |
| 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...repeat many times |
