I'm just bein' realistic, bein' honest with myself
Bbm
I've tried bein' optimistic but it doesn't seem to help

So I'll just have to admit this is the hand that I've been dealt
Ebm Ab
I'm not bein' pessimistic, just bein' honest with myself
Bbm Bbm
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day
Bbm Bbm
I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways
Ab Ab
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
Ebm Ab Bbm
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
Bbm Gb Gb Db Db
Ebm Ab

Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue
Ab
You can't just change the weather by changing your point of view
Ebm
Some days you have to wait until the storm just passes through
Bbm Bbm
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day

Fake my emotions and pretend I'm okay
