     I woke up this morning
             G       D            Em                            
To find that we have outlived the myth of trust
Em                        
You woke up this morning
       G           D               
To the fact we've lost the things
            Em                  
We took for granted between us
G                    D           Em   
Because I grew up in awe of the girl next door
        G        D     Em       
And the boy that never cried
          G                 D                  
And I was dreaming of those Elizabethan girls
               Bm                     
While you were working in the market
C                 
To earn ourselves
             Em                      G           
And when you found out what happened yesterday
      D                     Em             
While you were away in this land of Cain
Em                               
We were upstairs in the bedroom
G                  
Dancing disgusting
    D                   Em               
And flushing our babies down the drain
        G                D           Em       
And the apple that don't want to get eaten
     G        D        Em       
Will still fall off the tree
           G              D             
When you're in as deep as we are honey
        Bm                     C        
It's so easy to get washed out to sea
  Em                         G               
For the facts of life are not man and wife
    D              Em     
But Man and Woman sadly
        G                D                  
And the apple that don't want to get eaten
     Bm                 C     Em 
Will still fall off the tree

       
[Outro]
                      
I woke up this morning
             G      D           Em                 
To find that we've outlived the myth of trust
