Cynicism

C F G G C F G I once saw a sunset so vivid and warm that I swore it was perfect C F G I once had a lover, I'm not sure if I'll recover, but I know it was worth it C F Then, last night in the car, the falling raindrops looked like stars of some G incalculable speed F Fm C Then later, my friends said "Good to see you again, this is a home to me" F C So I wrote a song and I called it "The Love of my Life" F G Said "don't be gone long", it now sings me to sleep every night C F G And I never learned a lesson looking at my own reflection, but sometimes it seems useful C F G So I loosen my heart strings in high hopes of starting to find something truthful F C Cynicism isn't wisdom, it's a lazy way to say that you've been burned F Fm It seems, if anything, you'd be less certain after everything you ever learned C F G G (4x)
