"It's dark but just a game"
                      Cm      G#
That's what he would say to me
Cm                    Cm  
The faces aren't the same
                       Cm           G#
But their stories all end tragically
                   Cm
Sweet, w-whatever, baby
                         Cm  
And that's the price of fame
                  Cm           G#
A tale as old as time, you'd be
                   Cm
Sweet, w-whatever, baby
                    Cm  
A pretty little fool
                                  Cm 
To think exceptions to the rule, just walk around
             G#7
Like you and me this way

Cm                                Cm  
But life is sweet, w-whatever, baby
                                      Cm 
You gotta take them for what they've got
                                 G
And while the whole world is crazy
                                   C
We're getting high in the parking lot

Chorus:
         A#               Am
We keep changing all the time
     E7                   F
The best ones lost their minds
   G               C
So I'm not gonna change
      A#      Am
I'll stay the same
    E7               F
No rose left on the vines
      G    G#dim       Am
Don't even want what's mine
      Am       F  E7
Much less the fame
      F        G      Am  Am 
It's dark but just a game
      F        G      C
It's dark but just a game

It's dark, but just a game
So play it like a symphony
You know our love's the same,
they'll both go down in infamy
I was a pretty little thing and God,
I loved to sing
But nothing came from either one but pain
(But fuck it)

Life is sweet or whatever, baby
Don't ever think it's not
While the whole world is crazy
We're making out in the parking lot

Chorus:
We keep changing all the time
The best ones lost their minds
So I'm not gonna change
I'll stay the same
No rose left on the vines
Don't even want what's mine
Much less the fame
It's dark, but just a game
We keep changing all the time
The best ones lost their minds
So I'm not gonna change
I'll stay the same
No rose left on the vines
Don't even want what's mine
Much less the fame
It's dark, but just a game
It's dark, but just a game
It's dark, but just—
