     D Bm F#m
Oh, Karen...
                     D  Bm F#m
You take it all too hard
                           G      A
You been talking to those fools again
                              G    A
And they'll tear your world apart, hmm

Oh, Karen
You gotta try to understand
Gotta hold on to your soul
'Cause they'll crush it if they can

Chorus:
                    D                            G
So, Karen don't be sad, they're just a bunch of fools
                      F#m                                 A
And you can make them powerless, don't let them make the rules
                    D                           G
So, Karen don't be sad, you know the truth is true
                        F#m                          A
The world can still be beautiful, that part's up to you
                    D  Bm F#m
So, Karen don't be sad...

Oh, Karen
You know you're only letting 'em win
By letting all their lies
and hate destroy you from within-in
Oh, Karen
They've taken away your smile
But you can give it back to us
Just fake it for a while

Chorus

So, Karen don't be sad
Don't let 'em win
Oh, don't let 'em win
Don't let them win
Don't let them win
Oh, don't let them win
Oh, don't let them win
Don't let them win
