[A]Lying in the [Bm]bed you made, [D]ah but you were so [A]young.
[A]Say a prayer, put your [Bm]head down, gotta prove your [D]momma wrong.
[A]There s no poison like a [Bm]dream, [D]when it all comes un[A]done
[A]Don t you know that in the [Bm]end your not fooling [D]anyone.
[Bm]Every bond is a [D]bond of sorrow, every [E]blue sky fades to [A]grey
[F#m]Everything you [A]love will be taken [E]away.

You know they never had
[A] [Bm] [D]

[A]Between the rum and the [Bm]glass, [D]between the teeth and the [A]tongue.
[A]Come December when the [Bm]lights go out, you know you [D]can t count on anyone.
[A]Between an dream and a [Bm]lie, [D]between hope and what s [A]real,
[A]After so many years of let s [Bm]work it out, you think there d [D]be some kind of a deal.
