*Let me just say that this isn't going to be 100% accurate - I came as close as I could with the correct
chord shapes and picking pattern until I was satisfied with the result. These will not be the correct chord
names on some occasions. If you have any changes that you'd suggest others play leave them in the comments.
Taylor Goldsmith is leaving behind a legacy of beautifully crafted guitar pieces that I'm honored to even
listen too let alone play. This is another such piece...

Open with E bass notes
(Verse:)
E E2
If I ever get back to St. Louis again
E3 Bm7 A
There's gonna be some changes made
C#m G#m
I'm gonna find old Alice and right where I left off
A B E
It's gonna be just as if I stayed
E E2
That old organ grinder's gonna wind his box
E3 Bm7 A
And the knife sharpener's gonna sing
C#m G#m
When I get back to St. Louis again
A B E
I'm gonna buy that diamond ring
(Chorus:)
A
Diamond ring
E1
Diamond ring
G#
Shine like gold
C#m A D
Behold that diamond ring
If I ever get back to St. Louis again
Everybody's gonna smile
One of the Mack girls dragged me up to Washington
I got stuck there for a while
She gave me more misery than a man can hold
And I took her bad advice
Now I don't aim to bother anyone
I have paid that awful price
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Shine like gold
Behold that diamond ring
If ever I get back to St. Louis again
That diamond ring is gonna shine
That old burlesque dancer is gonna bum around
And everything's gonna be fine
I'm gonna settle up my accounts with lead
And leave the rest up to the law
Then I'm gonna marry the one I love
And head out for Wichita
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Shine like gold
Behold that diamond ring
(End on D strummed ^)
