[Verse]
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
Everybody laughed when I told them
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
I wanted you, I wanted you
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
Everybody grinned they humoured me
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
They thought that someone had spiked my tea
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
Everybody screamed they told me you
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
Would cost the moon, we’ll be there soon
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
Everybody laughed ‘til they were blue
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
They didn’t believe my words were true

[Chorus]
Ebmaj7 Cm D Gm
Everybody laughed but you

[Verse]
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
It’s easy to lose touch with all the friends
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
You like so much or liked so much
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
Everybody laughed they couldn’t take me
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
seriously, abandoned me
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
Sometimes I would read of things they’d done in
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
magazines, they made the scene
Gm7 C Am7 Cm7
Everybody left with such important
Gm7 Ebmaj7 Bb/D C
things to do, but I’m not blue

[Chorus]
Ebmaj7 Cm D Gm
Everybody left but you
Ebmaj7 Cm D Gm
Everybody left but you

Many years have passed and some have fallen
Em7 Cmaj7 G/B A
by the way I heard them say

Everybody dreamed but those who fell

Em7 A F#m7 Am7
Everybody climbed like ivy to the
Em7 Cmaj7 G/B A
top most branch, it was their chance
Em7 A F#m7 Am7
Everybody grasped ‘til they were through
Em7 Cmaj7 G/B A
It’s all they thought that they could do
