[Intro] F Em F G Am [Verse 1]
F                                Em
It seems to me there's something serious beginning

F                           Em               Am
A new approach found to the meaning of life

F                      Em
Deny that happiness is open as an option

F                             Em
And disappointment disappears overnight
[Verse 2]
         Em
Say that love

      Em         Am
Is an impossible dream

         F
Face the facts

                 Em     Am
That's what it's always been

F
Relax

Em
What you see is what you see

             F
And what you get

         Em    Am    F
Is a new philosophy

 Em                  F
(That's what you got

 Em                  F
 That's what you get)
[Chorus]
C           Dm
Miserablism

F         G
 Is is and isn't isn't

C           Dm
Miserablism

F         G
 Is is and isn't isn't
[Verse 3]
F
Meanwhile your life

         Em
Is still directed as a drama

Em
With realism

       Em          Am
On the sparsest of sets

F
Every performance

                        Em         Am
Tends to reach the same conclusion

F
No happy endings

      Em         Am
But a message to depress
[Verse 4]
F
Saying life

       Em        Am
Is an impossible Scheme

Am         F
That's the point

        Em    Am
Of this philosophy
[Chorus]
C           Dm
Miserablism

F         G
 Is is and isn't isn't

C           Dm
Miserablism

F         G
 Is is and isn't isn't
[Bridge]
Em
But if 'is' wasn't

F
And 'isn't' were

             Dm
You can't be sure

        A#         G     F    E F Em F E F E
But you might find ecstasy
C Dm F G C Dm F G [Verse 5]
F
Just for the sake of it

     Em
Make sure you're always frowning

F
It shows the world

                Em            Am     F
That you've got substance and depth
[Verse 6]
F
You know life

      Em         Am
Is an impossible scheme

    F
And love

   Em            Am
An imperceptible dream
[Outro]
C           Dm

F         G
