Verse 1:
Am C I'm acting in this play of G F Comedy with tragic words Am C The audience was smilin' G F Cheerin' on a scene absurdPre-Chorus
D Fm I can try to hide behind the makeup, but the show must go onC E I feel so crazy F My head is filled with broken mirrors C So many, I can't look away C E I'm in a bad way F If I could fix the broken pieces C Then I'd have a happy mistakeVerse 2:
Am C A lonely disposition G F Portraits of a strung-out girl Am C How'd I get so addicted G F To the love of the whole world?Pre-Chorus
D Fm I could try to hide behind the makeup, but the show must go onC E I feel so crazy F My head is filled with broken mirrors C So many, I can't look away C E I'm in a bad way F If I could fix the broken pieces C Then I'd have a happy mistakeFinal C Ooh ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh E Ooh-hah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah F Make my C Happy mistakeBridge:
F C If I could bottle up a sunny day G F So brilliantly, it'd wash away the sad mistakes C And I could hold my heart in a safe place G All I need to breathe F Is one happy mistake
