I have serious doubts about many of them, so remarks are very welcome.

So here I am once ^Dm more in the playground of the ^Bb broken ^C hearts, one more ex^Gmperience, one more ^F entry in a ^Am diary, self-^Dmpenned. Yet another emotional ^Bb sui^Ccide, overdosed on ^Am sentiment and ^Dm pride. ^Cm Too late to say I ^G love you. Too ^Cm late to restage the ^G play. A^Cmbandoning the ^G relics in my ^D playground of yester^Gday.

I'm ^D losing on the ^A swings, I'm ^F#m losing on the ^Bm roundabouts. I'm ^D losing on the ^A swings, I'm ^F#m losing on the ^Bm roundabouts. ^D Too much, too soon, ^A too far to go, ^F#m7 too late to play, ^Bm the game is ^Do-^Bmver, the game is ^Do-^Bmver.

^D ^A ^F#m ^D ^A ^F#m ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^G ^A ^G ^F#sus7 ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^G ^A ^G ^F#sus7 ^Bm Yet ^F#sus7 a^Bmno^F#sus7ther e^Bmmotio^F#sus7nal ^Bm su^F#sus7i^Gcide ^A ^G ^F#sus7

repeat these chords until you get sick of 'em, or until you reach...:

...^A the ^G game ^F#sus7 is ^Em over.... I ^Em act the ^Bm role in ^F#sus7 classic style ^Em of a ^Em martyr ^Bm carved with a ^F#sus7 twisted smyle ^Em To ^Em bleed the ^Bm lyrics ^F#sus7 for this song ^Em to ^Em write the ^Bm rites, to ^F#sus7 right my wrongs ^Em An ^Am epi^Gtaph to a ^F broken dream ^G to ^Am exor^Gcise this ^Fsilent scream ^G A ^Em scream ^Bm ^F#sus7 that's ^Em borne from ^Em sorrow ^Bm ^F#sus7 ^Em

etc....

Promised wedding now a ^A wake ^F#m ^E ^B ^Abm ^A ^F#m ^B The ^Abm fool escaped from paradise will look ^A over his shoulder and cry. ^F#m Sit and chew on daffodils and ^B struggle to answer why'

repeat ^Abm ^A ^F#m ^B with just one variation: ..has gone ^Abm solo in the ^A game, I've gone ^D solo ^F#m in the ^B game.
