Am                            Dm                            G                  C
“Every time it rains I feel my heart begin to ache again but why oh why is that so?”
      Am                             Dm                                 F       G           C
“When spring turns into summer I can feel my heart turn colder but then why, oh why is that so?”
 Am                               Dm                            G                    C
“When I hear the slightest bit of laughter at the things I do I cry, but why is that so?”
Am                           Dm                          F    G           C
Even though I’m acting so pathetic, will I find somebody sympathetic? Who knows

[Pre-Chorus 1]
             Em                    F
The word goodbye still fresh in my mind
            G                  Am
It tears my heart out slowly inside
            Em                     F                 G
The red and pinks that fill up the sky, they set me aglow
    Em
Not knowing where I should go

[Chorus 1]
           F                        G
Counselor, could you give me some advice?
                      Em                     Am
What am I supposed to do with the rest of my life?
             F                              G                        Am                Em
Are you just gonna tell me “everything will be alright”, like I’ll believe that lie? Ah
                F                          G
It’s not like I don’t want to live another day
             Em                       Am
I just wanna live without feeling any pain
               F                        G                 C
Looking at the sky, my only wish, is it really truly selfish?
Am   G C
Am   G C

[Verse 2]
 Am                          Dm                               G                  C
“Every time I lie, it always hurts me deep inside but I still do it, why is that so?”
     Am                                Dm                              F      G           C
“The bad will always prosper while the good will always suffer too but why oh why is that so?”
 Am                            Dm                               G                   C
“Money can’t buy happiness but happiness costs money, could you tell me why is that so?”
Am                     Dm                               F    G        C
Did we ever realise we bought into this system? And whatever they say goes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
             Em              F
The price of ignorance these days
           G                     Am
Is so much more than what we can pay
        Em              F                 G
If only life was just a film, directed by him...
     Em
Then maybe I’d feel something.

[Chorus 2]
             F                                G
Counselor, I don’t think that I can live this way.
               Em                  Am
Living on like this only causes me pain
         F                             G                         Am         Em
Even the greats couldn’t find a way to fill this hole or make it go away, ah!
           F                        G
All I ever wanted to do is close my eyes
                Em                       Am
Reaching out my fingertips to the summer skies
              F                         G                 C
Living in the past, my only wish, is it really truly selfish?
Am   F   Am   F
Am   F   Am   F

[Bridge]
          F                    G                 Em                     Am
A piece devoid of death or any tragedy in it… it won’t sell very well I know
              F                          G                            Am                  Em
The fact that humans can draw a price on petals that fall, is nothing safe from them anymore
    F                             G              C
Did you have dreams when you were younger, counselor?
                 F                               G          C
Was it something that you had to throw away when you got older?

[Chorus 3]
           F                        G
Counselor, could you give me some advice?
                      Em                     Am
What am I supposed to do with the rest of my life?
                 F                       G                      Am              Em
Saying that I’ll come out stronger after crying’s really such a bullshit lie, ah!
                F                          G
It’s not that I don’t care to live another day
               Em                          Am
Reality’s just harder to discern out these days
                     F           G
And summer’s just so far away… ah!
           F                    G
So tell me is this really all alright?
                 Em                       Am
Can we live like this for the rest of our life?
          F                                 G                      Am                     Em
Don’t you dare tell me that “it’s something only  you can make the answer to” alright!?! ah!
                     F                           G
Just let me close my eyes, breathe in the summer breeze
                Em                 Am
Let me feel the wind forever on my cheeks
               F                       G                 Am
Looking at the sky my only wish, is it really truly selfish?
               F                       G                 C
Better knowing you my only wish, is it really truly selfish?
Am   G C
