A Cross in the Square © Peter Ward 2015
[Intro]
Em D C G Em D C x2
[Verse 1]
Em D C G
You might be envious, of the life some others have
Em D C
and wish it was you and not them
Em D C G
But then of course that just wont happen,
Em D C
You are you and not them
[Verse 2]
Em D C G
Are you sure about them, being better off than you,
Em D C
do you think what they’ve got has come for free
Em D C G
how do you know you’d be happier than you are now
Em D C
better the devil you know if you ask me
[Chorus]
Em D C G Em D C
If everybody should, put their cross in the square, they’ll end up picking up their own
Em D C G Em D C
If everybody should, put their cross in the square, they’ll end up picking up their own
[Verse 3]
Em D C G
If you’re proud of who you are, what you have and what you’ve got
Em D C
And walk with you’re head held high
Em D C G
Then they will notice you they’ll see you’ve been set free
Em D C
And feel a little jealous of you
[Instrumental]
Em D C G Em D C x2
[Chorus]

If everybody should, put their cross in the square, they’ll end up picking up their own
Em D C G Em D C
If everybody should, put their cross in the square, they’ll end up picking up their own
[Verse 4]
Em D C G
You might be envious of the life some others have

How do you know, you’d be happier than you are now
Em D C
Better the devil you know if you ask me
[Chorus-part]

If everybody should, put their cross in the square, they’ll end up picking up their own
