Am9
My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing."
G6
I am not worried, I am not overly concerned
Am9
My friend implores me, "For one time only,
G6
Make an exception."I am not worried
Am9
Wrap her up in a package of lies. Send her off to a coconut island
G6
I am not worried. I am not overly concerned
Am9
with the status of my emotions. "Oh," she says, "you're changing."
G6
But we're always changing. It does not bother me to say


E5
this isn't love
C7M Dsus2 E5
cause if you don't want to talk about it then... it isn't love
C7M Dsus2
And I guess I'm gonna have to live with that
E5 C7M
But I'm sure there's something in a shade of grey
Dsus2
Or something in between
E5 C7M
And I can always change my name
Dsus2
If that's what you mean


Am9
My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing."
G6
But I am not really worried. I am not overly concerned
Am9
You try to tell yourself the things you try to tell yourself
G6
To make yourself forget. To make yourself forget, I am not worried...


E5
"If it's love," she said,
C7M Dsus2 E5
"then we're gonna have to think about the consequences."
C7M Dsus2
She can't stop shaking I can't stop touching her and


G Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 G
This time when kindness falls like rain, it washes her away
Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 G
and Anna begins... to change her mind
Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 G
"These seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days",
Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 Am9
she says: " and I am not ready for this sort of thing "



But I'm not going to break
G6
And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
Am9
I'm not going to bend and I'm not going to break
G6 Am9
And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
G6
It seems like I should say, "As long as this is love..."

But it's not all that easy... so maybe I should
Am9
Snap her up in a butterfly net
G6
Pin her down on a photograph album
E5
I am not worried; I've done this sort of thing before


C7M Dsus2 E5
But then I start to think about the consequences
C7M Dsus2
cause I don't get no sleep in a quiet room and


G C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
This time when kindness falls like rain it washes me away
C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
and Anna begins... to change my mind
C9 Em7 Dsus4
And everytime she sneezes I believe it's love and
G C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
Oh Lord, I am not ready for this sort of thing


C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
She's talking in her sleep, it's keeping me awake
C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
and Anna begins... to toss and turn
C9 Em7 Dsus4
And every word is nonsense but I understand and
G C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
Oh Lord, I am not ready for this sort of thing


C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
Her kindness bangs a gong, it's moving me along
C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
and Anna begins... to fade away
C9 Em7 Dsus4
It's chasing me away. She disappears and
G C9 Em7 Dsus4 G
Oh Lord, I am not ready for this sort of thing
