Lana Del Rey – Dark But Just a Game Chords

[Verse 1]

Cm                    
"It's dark but just a game"
                     Cm       G#
That's what he would say to me
Cm                   
The faces aren't the same
                                    G#
But their stories all end tragically
                   Cm
Sweet, w-whatever, baby
                        
And that's the price of fame
                 Cm            G#
A tale as old as time, you'd be
                   Cm
Sweet, w-whatever, baby
                   Cm
A pretty little fool
                                 
To think exceptions to the rule, just walk around
             G#7
Like you and me this way
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

Cm                               
But life is sweet, w-whatever, baby
                                    
You gotta take them for what they've got
                                G
And while the whole world is crazy
                                  C
We're getting high in the parking lot
 
 
[Chorus]

        Bb               Am
We keep changing all the time
    E7                   F
The best ones lost their minds
   G             C
So I'm not gonna change
      Bb      Am
I'll stay the same
   E7               F
No rose left on the vines
      G    G#dim       Am
Don't even want what's mine
              F   E7
Much less the fame
     F        G      Am 
It's dark but just a game
     F        G      C
It's dark but just a game

[Verse 2]

Cm                   
It's dark but just a game
                  Cm      G#
So play it like a symphony
Cm                       
You know our love's the same
                        Cm    G#
They'll both go down in infamy
Cm                         
I was a pretty little thing
                        
And got a lot to sing, but
                        G#7
Nothing came for me the one but pain
    Cm
But f*ck it
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                           Cm
Life is sweet, w-whatever, baby
                     
Don't ever think it's not
                         G
While the whole world is crazy
                                C
We're making out in the parking lot
 
 
[Chorus]

        Bb               Am
We keep changing all the time
    E7                   F
The best ones lost their minds
   G             C
So I'm not gonna change
      Bb      Am
I'll stay the same
   E7               F
No rose left on the vines
      G    G#dim       Am
Don't even want what's mine
     Am/G     F   E7
Much less the fame
     F        G      C
It's dark but just a game
        Bb               Am
We keep changing all the time
    E7                   F
The best ones lost their minds
   G             C
So I'm not gonna change
      Bb      Am
I'll stay the same
   E7               F
No rose left on the vines
      G    G#dim       Am
Don't even want what's mine
              F   E7
Much less the fame
     F        G      Am   
It's dark but just a game
     F        G      C      G
It's dark but just a game
     F        G
It's dark but just
