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