i>Intro Dm F G Am Dm F G Am G
G Am Em
Oh, life is bigger
Em Am
It's bigger than you and you are not me
Am Em Am
The lengths that I will go to the distance in your eyes
Em Dm G
Oh no, I've said too much, I set it up
Pre-Chorus
G Am Em
That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight
Em Am
Losing my religion
Am Em Am
Trying to keep up with you and I don't know if I can do it
Em Dm G
Oh no, I've said too much, I haven't said enough
G F
I thought that I heard you laughing
Dm G Am
I thought that I heard you sing
Am F Dm G Am G
I think I thought I saw you try
G Am Em Am
Every whisper of every waking hour I'm choosing my confessions
Am Em
Trying to keep an eye on you
Em Am
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool, fool
Em Dm G
Oh no, I've said too much, I set it up
Pre-Chorus
G Am Em
Consider this, consider this, the hint of the century
Em Am Em
Consider this the slip that brought me to my knees, failed
Am Em
What if all these fantasies come flailing around?
Em Dm G
Now I've said too much
Bridge:
G Am G
C Dm
But that was just a dream
C Dm
That was just a dream
Pre-Chorus
Dm Am Em
That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight
Em Am
Losing my religion
Am Em Am
Trying to keep up with you and I don't know if I can do it
Em Dm G
Oh no, I've said too much, I haven't said enough
G F
I thought that I heard you laughing
Dm G Am
I thought that I heard you sing
Am F Dm G Am G
I think I thought I saw you try
Outro
F Dm
But that was just a dream
Am
Try, cry, why try?
F Dm Am
That was just a dream, just a dream
G Am
Just a dream, dream
