(Verse 1)
[G] Reality is a [C] broken game,
[Em] You start out close then you slowly move,

[F] Everyday will break your heart,
[C] Your Easy days will never start,
[Em] You don't have a grand Destiny.
[Am] Your future only holds tragedy.

So what will you do? ( 4 Down strums for this line)

[G] Smile, 'cause tomorrow [D] will be worse,
[Em] In this labyrinth of shitty choices, [Am] That all of us traverse.
[F] No escape from fate, we're forever cursed.

[Am] your strength is all gone.

[D] When Misfortune likes to screw with you,
What do you do?
(Chorus 2)
[G] Smile, 'cause tomorrow [D] will be worse,
[Em] In this labyrinth of shitty choices, [Am] That all of us traverse.

(Verse 3)
[G] Nights are endless and, [C] sleep won’t come,
[Em] Shadows of your nightmares will, [Am] leave you feeling numb.
[G] Echoes of your regrets [C] still remain,
[Em] Gift Wrapped in sorrow, and [Am] bound in your pain.
(Pre-Chorus 3)
[F] That job you want, won't call you back.
[C] All your friends, think you're a hack.
[Em] Your restless mind won’t let you Sleep
[Am] That girl you like thinks you’re a Creep
[D] When all your dreams seem like they are through,
What do you do? ( 4 Down strums for this line)
