[Verse 1]
G                     C       Em
  To the pool at least try to let it go
G                              C        Em
  But nobody knows what they're fooling with here
 
G  C  Em
G  C  Em
 
G                                      C       Em
  There will be time and there will be a sign (ay)
G                               C                 Em
  When all the kids who have cancelled time will (ay)
G                              C      Em
  Take my hands and pull me up again (ay)
G                              C            Em
  Cheer me up and help me walk again (walk again)
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                     C       Em
  To the pool at least try to let it go
G                              C        Em
  But nobody knows what they're fooling with here
                                            (ay)
G                         C         Em
  I got bones and I got jaded legs (ay)
G                           C       Em
  Not the type that can win a race (ay)
G                       C         Em
  Living plastic on a vacant lot (ay)
G                    C         Em
  Left behind and staring at a robot
 
 
[Chorus 1]
G                    G6  C
  Don't be sad for me     (ay)
G                G6  C
  I'm a cartoon G     (ay)
C        G     Am     G
  And my intent is to breathe (ay)
C      Em        C         D
  In a new world, don't be sad for me

[Verse 3]
G                         C          Em
  I can balance on the highest tree (ay)
G                           C      Em
  You can only see outlines of me (ay)
G                C                Em
  I can disappear or lighten your day
G                       C
  In this tainted stage, I'm a skinny little ape
 
 
[Chorus 2]
G                    G6       C
  Don't be sad for me  (I'm a skinny little ape)
G                G6       C
  I'm a cartoon G  (I’m a cartoon)
C        G     Am     G
  And my intent is to breathe (ay)
C      Em        C         D
  In a new world, don't be sad for me
