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