Cynical

C C Am F


[Verse 1]
C             C
I don't know when I got scared
Am           F
Scared of my imagination
C           C
Used to see beautiful things
Am              F
Now I got this sick fixation


[Pre-Chorus 1]
      C                        C
I'm playing out every single fear 
I've ever had
Am                            
Scrolling through the pictures, 
          F
seeing all I don't have
   C                          C
Believing every negative feeling is 
a fact
   Am                       F
I don't wanna get used to that


[Chorus]
 C                    Am       
Why do I beat myself up and tear 
          Em
myself down?
         F
I'm so good at being critical
C             Am                 
I guess I'll learn it's hard to 
    Em
get hurt
              F
When you're good at being cynical

C C Am F

[Verse 2]
C               C
I'm jealous of when I was young
       Am           F
And everything was right there 
waiting
C              C
Wanted the sky, aimed so high
Am                      F
Instead of lowering my expectations


[Pre-Chorus 2]
    C                           
I don't know how else to keep my 
   C
feet on the ground
      Am                           
And stop the voices in my head from
   F
 getting too loud
    C                           C
I think I'm realizing no one figures
 it out
    Am                   F
And I gotta get used to that


[Chorus]
 C                    Am       
Why do I beat myself up and tear 
          Em
myself down?
         F
I'm so good at being critical
C             Am                 
I guess I'll learn it's hard to 
    Em
get hurt
              F
When you're good at being cynical

C Am Em F


[Bridge]
G                         Am     F
If I hope and it doesn't work, then
                    Am        G
I know, it's gonna hurt, so I'll
                               Am
Make a joke, act like nothing wrong
    F                      Dm
And put another layer of armor on


[Refrain]
 C                   Am        
Why do I beat myself up and tear 
           Em   F
myself down?


[Chorus]
 C                    Am       
Why do I beat myself up and tear 
          Em
myself down?
         F
I'm so good at being critical
C             Am                 
I guess I'll learn it's hard to 
    Em
get hurt
              F
When you're good at being cynical
              C              Am
(When you're good at being cynical
         Em
I'm so good at being cynical) 
(overlaps with next phrase)
         F                   C Am
I'm so good at being cynical
          Em             F    C Am
(I'm so good at being cynical)
          Em             F
(I'm so good at being cynical)
