[Verse]
DI loved a girl sChe lived out inG Pecos pretty asF she could Dbe
DAnd I worked the rigs on oCut in OddGessa to give her Fwhatever she Dneeds
DBut that girls she runs with an Coil company Gbum cause a diamond Fwas not on her
Dhand
DBut He left her soon neath the Cbig LovingG moon to go out andF x-ray theD land
[Chorus]
GNow I sit in my car Cthe new rainbow Gbar downDtown
And the Gfrost on the wind sheild Cshines towards the Gsky
Like a Dthousand tiny diamonds in the lights of Loving County
[Verse]
DWell I walked in that bar and I Cdrank myself Gcrazy thinkin bought Fher and that
Dman
DWhen in walked a woman lookin Cricher thanG sin and ten years worth of Fwork on
her Dhand
DWell I followed her home and when Cshe was Galone I put my Fgun to her Dhead
DAnd I dont recall what Chappened next at Gall but now that rich Fwoman she's Ddead
[Chorus]
GNow I drive down the highway ten Cmiles from my Gsweet baby's Darms
And theG moon is so bright it Cdon't look like Gnight
Dand the diamond how it sparkles in the lights of Loving County
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
DWell she opened that door and I Cknelt on the Gfloor
and I put that Fring in her Dhand
DAnd she said I do and sChe'd leave with me Gsoon to the rigs out in Fsouth DAlabam
DWell I told her to hide that Cring there Ginside and wait till the Ftimin was D
good
DAnd I drove back home and CI was alonGe cause I thought that Fshe'd Dunderstood
[Chorus]
GThe next night an old friend just Ccalled me to Gwish us both Dwell
said he'd Gseen her downtown Csashay'in Garound
Dand her diamond how it sparkled in the lights of Loving County[Instrumental]
[Verse]
DWell that sheriff he found me out Cwonder'n all Garound El Paso the vFery next D
day
DYou see I'd lost my mind on that Cbroken white Gline
before I even Freached DBalmaray
DNow she's in Ft.Worth and she's Cjust givin Gbirth
to the son of that Foil company Dman
DAnd they burried that poor old Csheriffs dead wife
with the ring that I Fstole on her Dhand
[Chorus]
GSometimes they let me look Cup at that GEast Texas Dsky
Gand the rain on the pines oh Clord how it Gshines
Dlike my darlins little diamond in the lights of Loving County
