The Game
(Rafael Guimarães)


F Em Dm C
C 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
And I refuse to need your approval
C
Too many seekers, too few beacons
G
But through the fog we'll keep on beaming
F Em
Through the crying hours of your glitter years
Dm C
All the living out of your tinsel tears
F Em
And the midnight trains I never made
Dm C G
'Cos I'd already 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 summer suns
G
Aren't good for everyone, aren't good for everyone
C
Spring has sprung and autumn's so well done
G
So well done

F Em
And it's a better thing that we do now
Dm C
Forgetting everything, the whys and hows
F
While you reminisce
Em
About the things you miss
Dm C
You won't be ready to kiss
G
Goodbye

C
The Earth is a world
The world is a ball
D
A ball in a game
G
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 Em
I'll never understand 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
And I was ready
G C
Ready to be loved

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

I'll never understand why you thought I would
Need to be reassured and understood
When I always knew that your bad's my good
And I was ready
To be

Through the crying hours of your glitter years
All the living out of your tinsel tears
And the midnight trains I never made
'Cos I'd already played

It's a better thing that we do now
Forgetting everything
The whys and hows
'Cos while you reminisce
About the things you miss
You won't be ready to kiss
Goodbye
