R.E.M., Losing My Religion (1991)
Key: :[A#m] (w: R.E.M.)
INTRO: [F#] [A#m] [F#] [A#m] //
[G#]
VERSE 1:
Oh
[A#m] life, it's bigger
[Fm] it's bigger than you, and you are
[A#m] not me
The lengths that I will
[Fm] go to, the distance in your
[A#m] eyes
[Fm] Oh no I've said too
[D#m] much, I've said it
[G#] all
VERSE 2:
That's me in the
[A#m] corner
That's me in the
[Fm] spot-light, losing my reli-
[A#m]-gion
Trying to
[Fm] keep a view, and I
[A#m] don't know if I can do it
[Fm] Oh no I've said too
[D#m] much, I haven't said e-
[G#]-nough
CHORUS:
I thought that I heard you
[F#] laughing
I thought that I heard you
[A#m] sing
[F#] I think I thought I saw you
[A#m] try
[G#]
VERSE 3:
Every
[A#m] whisper, every waking
[Fm] hour
I'm choosing my con-
[A#m]-fessions, trying to
[Fm] keep an eye on you
Like a
[A#m] hurt lost and blind fool, fool
[Fm] Oh no I've said too
[D#m] much, I said it
[G#] all
VERSE 4:
Consider
[A#m] this, consider this
[Fm] The hint of the century, consider
[A#m] this, the slip
That
[Fm] brought me to my knees, failed
[A#m] What if all these fantasies come
[Fm] flailing around
And now I've
[D#m] said too
[G#] much
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
[A#m] [G#] //
[A#m] [G#]
[C#] That was just a
[D#m] dream
[C#] That was just a
[D#m] dream
VERSE 5:
That's
[G#] me in the
[A#m] corner
That's me in the
[Fm] spot-light, losing my reli-
[A#m]-gion
Trying to
[Fm] keep, a view, and I
[A#m] don't know if I can do it
[Fm] Oh no I've said too
[D#m] much, I haven't said e-
[G#]-nough
REPEAT CHORUS:
OUTRO:
[F#] That was just a dream, to
[A#m] try, cry, fly, try
[F#] That was just a dream, just a
[A#m] dream
just a
[G#] dream, dream
[A#m]
