[Intro]

G D C D

[Verse 1]

   G 
I close my eyes when I get too sad
D
I think thoughts that I know are bad
C 
Close my eyes and I count to ten
D
Hope it's over when I open them
   G
I want the things that I had before
        D
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
C
I wish I could count to ten
D
Make everything be wonderful again
   G                        Em
I hope my Mom and I hope my Dad
      D                         Em 
Will figure out why they get so mad
   C                             Em
I hear them scream, I hear them fight
     D                            Em                  
They say bad words that make me wanna cry
   G                         Em
I close my eyes when I go to bed and I
D                             Em
dream of angels that make me smile
C                              Em
I feel better when I hear them say
D                          Em     C
"Everything will be wonderful someday"

[Chorus]

C                   D
Promises mean everything
                            G             Em  G
When you're little and the world's so big
                           C
I just don't understand how you can smile 
                D
with all those tears in your eyes
                                        G  Em  D  Em  C                              
And tell me everything is wonderful now
              Em      D
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

[Verse 2]

G                             Em
I go to school and I run and play
D                              Em
I tell the kids that it's all okay
C                                  Em
I laugh a lot so my friends won't know
D                                 Em
When the bell rings I just don't wanna go
G                             Em
Go to my room and I close my eyes
D                                 Em
I make believe that I have a new life
C                            Em
I don't believe you when you say
D                         Em    C
Everything will be wonderful someday

[Chorus]

C              Em   D
Promises mean everything
                    Em      G              Em  G
When you're little and the world is so big
                    Em    C
I just don't understand how you can smile 
      Em        D
with all those tears in your eyes
D

C                         Em      D                  Em         
I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

That I will understand someday

I don't want to meet your friends
    D                          
And I don't want to start over again
G              G/F#            Em
I just want my life to be the same
              D
Just like it used to be
C                      D
Some days I hate everything

Everyone and everything
D
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now...
