Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Verse 1: A7 I'm just being realistic, being honest with myself Dm7 I've tried being optimistic, but it doesn't seem to help G So, I'll just have to admit this is the hand that I've been dealt Em Am I'm not being pessimistic, just being honest with myself Chorus: A7 I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day Dm7 I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways G But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same Em Am A7 I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
Post-Chorus: A7 Dm7 Ooh Oooooh G Em Am I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it Verse 2: A7 You only get that what you're given, it's not always up to you Dm7 Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue G You can't just change the weather by changing your point of view Em Am Some days you have to wait until the storm just passes through Chorus: A7 I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day Dm7 I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways G But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same Em Am A7 I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today Post-Chorus: A7 Dm7 G Em Ooh Oooooh Oooooooh Bridge: A7 So like a boat on the ocean, I'll rock with the waves Dm7 God, I'm so sick of this notion that I have to fake G Fake my emotion and pretend I'm okay Em Am So like a boat on the ocean, I'll just rock with the waves Chorus: A7 I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day Dm7 I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways G But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same Em Am A7 I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today Post-Chorus: A7 Dm7 Ooh Oooooh G Em Am A7 I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
