Game

Intro
F, Em Dm, C, C,
G, C, C, G, G

C
  A sense of duty was my one intention
       G
and an ugly beauty was my own invention
C
  Pride a proud refusal
G
I refuse to need your approval
C
  Too many seekers, too few beacons
      G
But through the fog, we'll keep on beaming
            F
Through the crying hours
                     Em
of your glittery years
Dm      C
all the living out, of your tinsel tears
        F
and the midnight trains, I never made
Em   Dm  C
'cos I'd already
G            C,   C, G, G
played...the game

C
  Everybody's got their own good reason
          G
why their favorite season, is their favorite season
C
  Winter winners and those summers suns
                G
aren't good for everyone, aren't good for everyone
C
  Spring has sprung and autumns
G
So well done, so well done

           F
And it's a better thing
             Em
that we do now,
   Dm      C
forgetting everything, the whys and hows
           F
While you reminisce
                        Em
about the things you miss
    Dm       C         G          C   D, G, G
you won't be ready, to kiss...goodbye

G              C
The earth is a world
               D
The world is a ball
            G
A ball in a game with no rules at all
              C
And just as I wonder
                    D
at the beauty of it all
           G
you go and drop it and it breaks when it falls

           F
I'll never understand
                  Em
why you thought I would
     Dm    C
need to be  reassured and be understood
       F
When I always knew
                   Em
that your bad's my good
    Dm    C
and I was ready
G             C
ready...to be loved

C, G, G, C, C, G, G

           C
Born under Mars
             G
With Jupiter rising
            C
Fallen from stars
               G
That lit my horizon

           F
I'll never understand
                  Em
why you thought I would
     Dm    C
need to be  reassured and be understood
       F                              Em
When I always knew that your bad's my good
    Dm    C                 G
and I was ready, ready...to be

            F
Through the crying hours
            Em
of your glittery years
Dm      C
all the living out of your tinsel tears
          F
and the midnight trains
        Em            Dm C     G
I never made 'cos I'd al-ready played

           F
and it's a better thing
           Em     Dm
that we do now forgetting
C
Everything the whys and hows
          F                              Em
While you reminisce about the things you miss
    Dm       C        G          C
you won't be ready to kiss...goodbye
