Lenka - Sad Song

F – Em – C Dm – F – G

C G
don’t tell me you wanna be
Am G
the kind of girl who’s drowning
C G Am
and don’t go holding on to anything
G
that’s gonna keep you frowning , darling
Dm
everyone’s compelled to look into the mirror
Am
when they’re crying
Dm
just because your tears are pretty
G
doesn’t mean they’ll get you by

C F G
sing me a sad song and make me feel better
C F G
sing me a happy song and i might start to cry
Dm G
because everything feels like it’s going around in circles
Dm G
and everyone knows that the world is upside down

C G
you were once a little baby
Am G
full of optimistic wonder
C G
so what got into you to make you think
Am G
that it could pull you under , honey
Dm
could it be that we were under
Am
the impression life was perfect?
( la , la , la , la , la )
Dm
and when the bubble burst
G
we understood that every part of it hurts

C F G
sing me a sad song and make me feel better
C F G
sing me a happy song and i might start to cry
Dm G
because everything feels like it’s going around in circles
Dm G
and everyone knows that the world is upside down

F – Em – C Dm – F – G

C Dm Em F G
i’m going to color my glasses rose
C Dm Em F G
and i’m going to follow where the rainbow goes
Dm G
and my pot of gold will be waiting

C F G
so sing me a sad song and make me feel better
C F G
sing me a happy song and i might start to cry
Dm G
because everything feels like it’s going around in circles
Dm G
and everyone knows that the world is upside down
Dm G C
yeah , everyone knows the world is upside down
