[Verse 1]
G D
I wake up in the morning,
C D G D
I get out of bed and drag my makeup on.
G D/F# Em Am
I walk out on the street. My ev'ry exit's covered.
G D C
I hitch up my pants and I fake it just like a man.
[Chorus]
Am D
Ev'ry hold that I had on time,
Am D
ev'ry dream that I thought was mine,
G D/F# C
Well, it's all quite forgotten now - [hold pause]
Em D C
lost without the double cross of you.
[Verse 2]
G D
Like my coffee I've grown cold.
C D G D
I stay behind and fade into the wall.
G D/F# Em Am
I'm lost amongst the jostling crowds at lunchtime.
G D C
I'm hoping you'll come but I know that you won't even call.
[Chorus]
Am D
Ev'ry hold that I had on time,
Am D
ev'ry dream that I thought was mine,
G D/F# C
Well, it's all quite forgotten now - [hold pause]
Em D C
lost without the double cross of you.

[Verse 3]
G D
My social smile comes out again.
C D G D
My glass in hand, I've a word for one and all.
G D/F# Em Am
Ah, but deep inside, I'm crying just like a baby.
G D C
I'm all grown up but I never learned how to crawl.
[Chorus]

Ev'ry hold that I had on time,

Ev'ry hold that I had on time,
(Every hold that I had on)
Am D
ev'ry dream that I thought was mine,
(Every dream that I thought)
G D/F# C
Well, it's all quite forgotten now.
