[Verse]

 
    Am              Em
Oh, life is bigger
 
It's bigger than you
            Am
And you are not me.
                        Em
The lengths that I will go to,
                     Am      Em
The distance in your eyes,
                     Dm
Oh no, I've said too much,
         G
I set it up.
 
 
[Chorus]

 
                 Am
That's me in the corner,
                 Em
That's me in the spotlight
            Am
Losing my religion.
          Em
Trying to keep up with you.
      Am           
And I don't know if 
              Em
I can do it.

I haven't said enough.

I heard you sing.
Am   F               Dm   G   Am     G

[Verse]

 
          Am                   Em
Every whisper of every waking hour
                   Am
I'm choosing my confessions,
          Em
Trying to keep an eye on you
       Am          
Like a hurt lost and 
                    Em
blinded fool, fool
                     Dm
Oh no, I've said too much,
         G
I set it up.
 
 
[Verse]

 
         Am
Consider this, consider this,
    Em
The hint of a century,
         Am
Consider this: the slip
     Em
That brought me to my knees failed.
Am
What if all these fantasies
     Em
Come    flailing around?
         Dm       G
Now I've said too much.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
    G                       F
I thought that I heard you laughing,
        Dm        G         Am   Am/B   Am/C   Am/D
I thought that I heard you sing.
Am   F               Dm  G   Am    G
I  think I thought I saw you try.
 
    C               Dm
But that was just a dream,
C               Dm
That was just a dream.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                 Am
That's me in the corner,
                 Em
That's me in the spotlight
            Am
Losing my religion.
          Em
Trying to keep up with you.

I can do it.

Try, cry,   why,   try.

That was just a dream, 
 Dm G      Am 
   just a dream, 
        G
just a dream, dream.
