             Gm                         D#             F
You'll never make me stay, so take your weight off of me,
            Gm                       D#           F
I know your every move, so won't you just let me be?
               Gm                      D#            F
I've been here times before, but I was too blind to see,
            Gm                            D#            F
That you se-duce every man; this time you won't seduce me.

              Gm                   D#            F
She's saying; that's ok, hey baby, do what you please,
           Gm                             D#             F
I have the stuff that you want; I am the thing that you need.
              Gm                                D#         F
She looked me deep in the eyes, she's touchin' me, so to start,
                  A                            D
She says there's no turnin' back; she trapped me in her heart.

Chorus:
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no.
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm   D#          F
Dirty Di-ana;  let me be!

              Gm                               D#            F
She likes the boys in the band; she knows when they come to town,
         Gm                     D#             F
Every musician's fan, after the curtain comes down.
             Gm                             D#         F
She waits at backstage doors, for those who have pres-tige,
            Gm                              D#       F
Who promise fortune and fame; a life that's so care-free.

              Gm                   D#           F
She's saying; that's ok, hey baby, do what you want,
             Gm                              D#             F
I'll be your night lovin' thing, I'll be the freak you can taunt.
            Gm                           D#      F
And I don't care what you say; I want to go too far,
             A                 D (n.D#)
I'll be your everything, if you make me a star.

Chorus:
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no.
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm  D#  F
Dirty Di-ana.

         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no.
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm  D#  F
Dirty Di-ana.

    Gm  D#  F
Dia-na!
    Gm  D#  F
Dia-na!
         Gm   D#  F
Dirty Di-ana!
        Gm      D#       F
It's Di-a-aa-aa, come on!


           Gm                             D#         F
She said I have to go home, 'cos I'm real tired you see,
           Gm                        D#             F
But I hate sleepin' alone; why don't you come with me?
          Gm                             D#          F
I said my baby's at home; she's probably worried to-night,
         Gm                             D#      F
I didn't call on the phone, to say that I'm al-right.

      Gm                             D#            F
Diana walked up to me, she said; I'm all yours to-night,
          Gm                        D#            F
At that I ran to the phone, sayin'; baby, I'm al-right.
           Gm                         D#          F
I said but unlock the door, because I forgot the key.
                A                               D
She said; he's not coming back; because he's sleeping with me.

[Chorus:
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no.
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no.

         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no.
         Gm      D#  F
Dirty Di-ana, no,
         Gm   D#  F
Dirty Di-ana.

     Gm  D#  F
Come on!
     Gm  D#  F
Come on!
     Gm  D#  F
Come on!
     Gm  D#  F
Come on!
