I used to think she was the greatest thing
I really cared, gave her a diamond ring
She said she'd rather die than ever leave me
Well I never saw her face since then
And if the law don't get her then I will-
Four little diamonds
She must be somewhere on the open road
She always said she was a lonely one
She gets you down with her tales of woe
She took me for everything
And if the law don't get her then I will
Four little diamonds
Chorus: I looked around I climbed up high into the dawn
But she was gone with the night
I thought about the things she said
And all the things we'd done
But where could she run- she ran away
There's just no answer to give
I keep wonderin' about her, day and night
She probably thinks I was a fool- she's right
She don't know it
But I'm gonna keep on searchin' for that woman
I'm gonna search everywhere
And if the law don't get her then I will
Four little diamonds
Chorus
I still hear her callin' out to me,
I still listen for her endlessly
But it never even crossed my mind she was a cheater
I gotta find where she hides
'Cause if the law don't get her then I will -
Four little diamonds

Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) è un gruppo musicale britannico formatosi nel 1970 da Roy Wood, Bev Bevan e Jeff Lynne, già membri di The Move. L'obiettivo iniziale era quello di creare una nuova band con sonorità più ampie e orchestrali rispetto a quelle del precedente gruppo. Dopo due album con The Move, i tre musicisti si dedicarono completamente all'ELO, che divenne rapidamente uno dei gruppi musicali più popolari degli anni '70 e '80. L'ELO è noto per il suo sound caratterizzato da un mix di rock progressivo, pop melodico e influenze orchestrali, spesso realizzate con l'uso di sintetizzatori e strumenti elettronici. Jeff Lynne si è dimostrato un compositore e produttore eccezionale, guidando la band verso successi come "Mr. Blue Sky", "Livin' Thing" e "Telephone Line". L'ELO ha pubblicato numerosi album di successo, tra cui "Eldorado", "Out of the Blue" e "Time", consolidando il suo posto nella storia della musica rock.
