Intro G  Am  C  G Am C

G               Am             C               G
New love like a diamond like a twinkling star
                     Am                  C
That's a whole lotta heartache to get to where are
G                     Am    C               G
Cause every night is a myth every woman a dream
                  Am                         C
Watch your little heart get crushed when the truth gets in between

Chorus
Am              C              D                      G      G/f#
Every bond is a bond to sorrow your blue sky turns grey
Em            C                        D
Everything you love will be taken away
G           Am    C             G
Cry for your Mamma cry for your Dad
                Am                C       D
Cry for everything you know they never had


Lying in the bed you made ah! but you were so young
Say a prayer put your head down gotta prove your mamma wrong
There's no poison like a dream when it all comes undone
Don't you know that in the end your not foollin' anyone

Chorus
Every bond is a bond to sorrow your blue sky turns grey
Everything you love will be taken away
Cry for your Mamma cry for your Dad 
Cry for everything you know they never had

Between the rum and the glass between the teeth and the tongue
Come December when the lights go out you know you can't count on anyone
Between a dream and a lie between hope and what's real
After so many years of let's work it out you'd think there'd be some kind of deal
