Verse 1:
C                    F
Have you seen that moon-faced kid?
C                         F                C
That burned out halo hangs right above his head
         F               C                  F              Am
It's so hard not to be crushed when you're praying for too much
         C7              F                  Fm            Am
And the stars refuse to shine for you, they do it just to spite
           G                      D
Well, they know you're trying too hard

Verse 2:
C       G                           F               C
Hoping for a little more than just another kiss goodnight
C                     F
Your face is full and paved with lines
C                     F                  C
Your hair's receding fast and so is your mind
         F              C                   F               Am
And that lazy eye won't budge 'cause you're praying way too much
          C7                   F
And don't take that pill, your head will swell
       Fm           Am
You'll only be king once
     G                   D
Just once you'll only be king


Chorus:
C             G
Smile, please smile
  E             F
I just want you happy

Smile, please smile
  E             F
I just want you happy
