(RIFF2) Am Em
Oh, life is bigger, It's bigger than you
Am Em
And you are not me, the lengths that I will go to
Am Em Dm
The distance in your eyes, oh, no I've said too much
G
I set it up
(RIFF2) Am Em
That's me in the corner, that's me in the spot light
Am Em
Losing my religion, trying to keep up with you
Am Em Dm
And I don't know if I can do it, oh no, I've said too much
G
I haven't said enough
(RIFF1) F
I thought that I heard you laughing
G Am Am/C
I thought that I heard you sing
F G Am G
I think I thought I saw you try
(RIFF2) Am Em
Every whisper of every waking hour
Am Em
I'm choosing my confessions trying to keep an eye on you
Am
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool, fool
Em Dm
Oh, no I've said too much
G
I set it up

Consider this, the slip that brought me to my knees failed
Am Em
What if all these fantasies come flailing around

Now I've said too much
